Lilo & Sew simply turned some of the profitable live-action Disney film remakes with a worldwide field workplace haul of $914 million, and counting. So when the Home of Mouse made the announcement {that a} sequel is formally within the works on Sew day (6/26, get it?) I wasn’t in any respect shocked. However, I’m interested in two huge issues concerning how Lilo & Sew 2 shall be dealt with as a longtime fan.
Lilo & Sew 2 Is Formally Occurring
Sew and his lil pink scorching rod helped announce the information that Lilo & Sew 2 is “now in improvement” at Walt Disney Studios with this candy publish. Test it out:

Within the Twitter video, Sew struts into Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, California, to trigger a ruckus, drifting and such throughout the heaps to spell out Lilo & Sew 2. He yelled out an enormous “Right here we go!” as he did it, and it felt like the easiest way for the corporate to announce this undertaking. Nevertheless, it’s additionally slightly obscure. We assume loads of the solid of the unique shall be again, however we do not know what artistic minds are behind it this time round.
Will the director behind the live-action Lilo & Sew, Dean Fleischer Camp, be concerned? Between the film’s optimistic buzz, together with by way of our personal Lilo & Sew assessment, and the filmmakers coping with fairly a little bit of backlash from followers, I believe it might go both means.
Nevertheless, there are two different questions that I am actually centered on.
I Have Two Questions About How They Are Going To Do The Sequel
That brings me to my questions. For one, I’m curious if Lilo & Sew 2 will adapt the precise second film, which was Lilo & Sew 2: Sew Has A Glitch, or Sew! The Film. All of the Sew follow-ups had been direct-to-video and had been extra of TV motion pictures than movies. The official Lilo & Sew 2 that got here out in 2005 had Sew reverting again to his programming, and his discovered household has to assist him get again to regular.
Nevertheless, two years earlier than that film, there was Sew! The Film, which confirmed the blue alien assembly a complete bunch of different experiments like him as they land in Hawaii. It additionally concerned much more of Gantu and a rodent-like villain named Dr. Jacques von Hämsterviel, and I query whether or not that will work in live-action. Will certainly one of these be tailored, or will the sequel be a totally authentic story?
If the live-action Lilo & Sew’s key change was selecting to not have Gantu and making Jumba the principle villain, I ponder if Zach Galifianakis’ model of the character will turn into extra of the great man he was within the animated motion pictures. That might turn out to be useful ought to Sew have a glitch. Whereas I discovered the remake to be much like the unique in loads of methods, there have been fairly a few adjustments to the ending, from Jumba remaining villainous to Nani going to school in San Diego, California. And I think about the filmmakers is perhaps impressed to go in a totally completely different route for this live-action sequel.
These are all questions I assume the creatives over at Disney are debating now as I write this. So, as we study extra about Lilo & Sew 2, we’ll maintain you posted.
