Go behind the scenes of MULAN with “A Tale of Many” featurette and director Niki Caro.
A tale truly as old as time going back to the 6th century, The Ballad of Mulan has been adapted for books, stage, television, and the big screen, no less than 22 times since 1917, with Disney’s 1998 animated Mulan being the most famous. Now, director Niki Caro and Disney bring The Ballad of Mulan to life in this exciting live-action film starring Yifei Liu as MULAN.
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. The film is directed by Niki Caro from a screenplay by Rick Jaffa & Amanda Silver and Elizabeth Martin & Lauren Hynek based on the narrative poem “The Ballad of Mulan.”
