‘Lilo & Stitch’ Teaser Shows Stitch Imitating Godzilla

Disney’s Lilo & Stitch live-action teaser trailer shows Stitch stomping his way through a sandcastle town. The 30-second teaser provides our first real look at how the cute (but weird) little creature will be brought to life in the 2025 theatrical release.

The family-friendly live-action adaptation stars Maia Kealoha as Lilo. Sydney Elizebeth Agudong, Billy Magnussen, Tia Carrere, Hannah Waddingham, Courtney B. Vance, and Zach Galifianakis also star. The original film’s director Chris Sanders returns to voice Stitch.

“A live-action reimagining of Disney’s 2002 animated classic, 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,” reads Disney’s synopsis. Oscar nominee Dean Fleischer Camp (Marcel the Shell with Shoes On) directs and Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich serve as producers. Executive producers include Tom Pietzman and Ryan Halprin.

Lilo & Stitch opens in theaters on May 23, 2025.
