Mulan: trailer arrives for Disney’s upcoming live action adaptation

It may not be arriving in UK and Irish cinemas until Spring 2020 but the teaser trailer for the upcoming live action adaptation of Disney’s Mulan has just landed.

The film, based on the classic 1998 animated movie, tells the epic tale of a fearless young woman who risks everything out of love for her family and her country to become one of the greatest warriors China has ever known. Watch the trailer:

When the Emperor of China issues a decree that one man per family must serve in the Imperial Army to defend the country from Northern invaders, Hua Mulan, the eldest daughter of an honored warrior, steps in to take the place of her ailing father.

Masquerading as a man, Hua Jun, she is tested every step of the way and must harness her inner-strength and embrace her true potential. It is an epic journey that will transform her into an honored warrior and earn her the respect of a grateful nationā€¦and a proud father.

Mulan stars Yifei Liu as Mulan; Donnie Yen as Commander Tung; Jason Scott Lee as Bƶri Khan; Yoson An as Cheng Honghui; with Gong Li as Xianniang and Jet Li as the Emperor.
