Lilo & Stitch 2 Update Is Great News for Fans of Animated Movie
The live-action has received an exciting update.
Lilo & Stitch was released in United States theaters this past May by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. A remake of the 2002 animated flick of the same name, the movie is directed by Dean Fleischer Camp and stars Maia Kealoha as Lilo, Sydney Elizabeth Agudong as Nani, Zach Galifianakis as Dr. Jumba Jookiba, Billy Magnussen as Agent Wendell Pleakley, and Courtney B. Vance as Cobra Bubbles.
Lilo & Stitch has proven to be a huge hit at the box office, as it has now made over a billion dollars worldwide. A sequel was officially announced to be in development last month.
What is the Lilo & Stitch 2 update?
Chris Sanders is in final negotiations to write Lilo & Stitch 2, per The Hollywood Reporter.
Sanders co-wrote and co-directed the original Lilo & Stitch movie with Dean DeBlois. He also voices the Stitch character not only in the 2002 and 2025 movies, but also in Stitch! The Movie, Lilo & Stitch: The Series, Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, Leroy & Stitch, and more.
Outside of Lilo & Stitch, Sanders directed 2024's The Wild Robot for DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures. He is currently working on a sequel for that movie as well.
Plot details for Lilo & Stitch 2 remain under wraps at this time, though The Hollywood Reporter says it will be a 'brand-new story' rather than an adaptation of any of the aforementioned animated Lilo & Stitch sequels. Jonathan Eirich will return to produce.
Lilo & Stitch 2 does not yet have a release date from Disney.
The first live-action Lilo & Stitch, meanwhile, is still playing in theaters. The short synopsis for the film reads, 'Lilo & Stitch is the wildly funny and touching story of a lonely Hawaiian girl and the fugitive alien who helps to mend her broken family.'
