"Mulan" reveals a clip of Mulan and Chen Honghui "getting to know each other after fighting"

Recently, the live-action movie "Mulan" released its first feature film clip, in which Mulan played by Liu Yifei and Chen Honghui played by An Youxin met for the first time. The two "got to know each other after a fight" during the military registration. Just when the atmosphere between the two was solemn, General Tang played by Donnie Yen appeared and pulled the two apart.

From the clip, we unexpectedly discovered that in order to better interpret the role of Hua Mulan and make it more realistic as a woman dressed as a man, Liu Yifei deliberately lowered her voice to make it closer to a man. From this detail, it can be seen that Liu Yifei has put a lot of effort into this role.

It is understood that in the process of film adaptation, in order to take into account the current me too movement and the Chinese market, the film producers split the role of the general in the original animation into two roles, Chen Honghui and General Tang. At the same time, after the feedback from the Chinese test film, the main film also deleted the kissing scene between Mulan and Chen Honghui.

"Mulan" is a live-action drama film directed by Niki Caro, starring Liu Yifei and Donnie Yen, with special appearances by Gong Li and Jet Li. It is scheduled to be released in North America on March 27, 2020. The film is adapted from the 1998 Disney animated film of the same name, telling the story of Hua Mulan disguising herself as a man, joining the army on behalf of her father, and bravely fighting the Huns.

It is reported that "Mulan" will officially land in North American theaters on March 27, 2020.
