Mulan Live-Action in the Works

A live-action feature version of Mulan, the legend of a heroic Chinese girl-warrior that Disney popularized in their 1998 animated movie, will be among the first films made by Xinhua Media Entertainment in partnership with the state-run China Film Group, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

"China Film and Xinhua came in with significant funding to make this a co-production when we met them at Cannes in May," Christopher Brough said. "They liked that we were taking a Hollywood approach to a classic Chinese story."

The film is set to begin shooting in China in the spring.

    There WILL be singing. Russian singer Vitas is a guest star. He has recorded a soundtrack for the movie. He has the most amazing voice, and he looks great in this movie! I saw some clips of the film at his concert last week. It looks like a really great film. I hope they will release with English subtitles. I really want to see it.
