Everybody’s favourite blue, furry alien is coming again for extra shenanigans in Hawaii. Lilo and Sew 2 is formally within the works at Disney.
On June 26, Disney posted a video of a puppet model of beloved little alien Sew driving across the Disney Studios lot in a pink toy automobile designed for teenagers. Ultimately, Sew sees a “2″ on a constructing and decides he desires that, too. He then does donuts within the car parking zone. The digicam reveals that his tire tracks spell out “Lilo and Sew 2,” with Disney including an “is in growth” on the display screen after that.
Saying it on Thursday wasn’t random. It was June 26 or 6-26, aka Sew’s ID code within the film. The information of a Lilo and Sew sequel isn’t actually shocking, contemplating most movie trade consultants and reporters anticipated a follow-up to this yr’s extraordinarily profitable remake to be revealed quickly. The lately launched live-action adaptation of the unique 2002 animated movie was an enormous box-office hit. It remodeled $920 million globally on a finances of nearly $100 million. That’s a giant return on funding in an period when numerous blockbusters value upwards of $200 million.
For Disney, the Lilo and Sew remake’s success comes at a time when it’s been struggling to persistently produce large hit films. Elio is floundering. Latest Marvel films have did not carry out in addition to previous installments. And it’s years away from a brand new Star Wars film. So Lilo and Sew’s runaway success on the field workplace has probably been a giant deal for the corporate, particularly contemplating its small finances. The remake was initially deliberate for launch on Disney+, however the Mickey Mouse empire’s leaders determined to present it a shot in theaters, and it paid off.
No details about the sequel’s plot or characters has been revealed, and we don’t have a launch window but, both. However Sew is again. Hopefully, he and Disney work out a means to enhance on the remake’s awful ending.
