Fun Facts

• The character of Mushu was ultimately cut from the live-action remake in respect of Chinese audiences. As Mulan is largely inspired by the legend of Hua Mulan and is a popular story in the Chinese culture, Disney wanted to honour the original folk tale as opposed to solely re-creating the 1998 cartoon. This is also contributed to Disney’s decision of excluding musical numbers in the live adaptation.

• This is the first Disney live-action to receive a PG-13 rating and appeal to a more mature audience than other Disney remakes.

• Originally scheduled for March 2020, the film had to be delayed until July 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

• Liu Yifei was cast as the titular role of Mulan in 2017 but before that, casting directors saw nearly 1,000 candidates from five continents in search of the female warrior.

• Producer Jason Reed revealed that Mulan’s love interest, Captain Li Shang was dropped in response to the Me Too movement.
