Facts and Synopsis of the Live Action Lilo and Stitch You Must Know Before Watching

The process of making this film has been planned since October 2018. However, production was delayed for quite a long time due to the Covid-19 pandemic that affected the world, causing the completion of the film to take longer than initially planned.

During the production period, there was a change in important positions, namely the screenwriter and director. Initially, Mike Van Waes was appointed as the screenwriter and Jon M Chu as the director, but later the director's position was taken over by Chris Kekaniokalani Bright.

This film chose to shoot on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. In addition, the selection of actors and actresses also has Hawaiian blood because they are considered capable of bringing an authentic Hawaiian cultural atmosphere, in line with the original story's setting.

This film features both renowned and new actors. Disney chose Maia Kealoha of Hawaiian descent as Lilo, Sydney Elizebeth Agudong as Nani, and Kaipot Dudoit as David Kawena, with Zach Galifianakis as Jumba. Additionally, the voice of Stitch remains provided by Chris Sanders, just like in the original animated version.

This film is an adaptation of the animated film Lilo & Stitch that was released in 2002. The story carries a strong message about family and accepting differences.

This live-action film was made more than two decades after the release of the original animated film in 2002. This means fans had to wait about 23 years to see the live-action version of the story LILO & STITCH.

This film tells the story of the first meeting between Stitch, a cosmic creature resulting from the experiments of scientist Jumba Jookiba, and Lilo Pelekai, a little girl who then forms a family bond with Stitch. Stitch himself is known as Experiment 626, resembling a blue furry koala, possessing super strength, high intelligence, and often causing chaos.
