After months and months of debate on if we’d even see the film, Disney is moving full-steam ahead with debuting Mulan exclusively on its streaming service Disney+, and following the recent confirmation that it will be skipping a theatrical release (in countries with Disney+, at least) we now have a new trailer to get us excited for this live-action remake.
Showing off more of the action and the main villain, this new look at Mulan is one of the best yet. Check out the trailer here…

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 nation…and a proud father. “Mulan” features a celebrated international cast that includes: Yifei Liu as Mulan; Donnie Yen as Commander Tung; Jason Scott Lee as Böri Khan; Yoson An as Cheng Honghui; with Gong Li as Xianniang and Jet Li as the Emperor. Niki Caro directs the film from a screenplay by Rick Jaffa & Amanda Silver and Elizabeth Martin & Lauren Hynek based on the narrative poem “The Ballad of Mulan.”
Mulan is launching on Disney+ on September 4th.
