While Disney is primarily known for their princesses and fairy tales, 2002’s Lilo & Stitch has held a special place in many Disney fans’ hearts as it centered on the mischievous alien Stitch as he learns the true meaning of family. Disney hopes that will prove true again for a new generation with the live-action Lilo & Stitch, now playing.
The 2025 new movie continues the trend of Disney live-action remakes (one we saw earlier in 2025 with Snow White), but early buzz has Lilo & Stitch among the top-end of these entries from the mega studio. And amid the slate of summer blockbuster movies, Lilo & Stitch is one that will hopefully satisfy the kiddos for a couple of hours.
