The director of Mulán justifies the absence of Mushu and reveals if there will be songs in the remake of real action


The director Niki Caro presented this Friday in Madrid the first images of the new version of real action of Mulán, which will hit theaters on March 27. During the presentation held at the Film Academy, and in which the costume designer Bina Daigeler, the filmmaker said that this new version of Mulán "there will be humor, epic, battles and scenarios

It was not so resounding when referring to the mythical songs of the 1998 Disney animated classic, because although at one point he said there would be no songs, since they do not fit with that more realistic vision that they want to give to the story, in another answer left open the possibility that the protagonist, Liu Yifei, will sing during the film.

"She is a magnificent fighter, a great swordswoman, rides a horse and sings very well. Can I say that?", She interrupted herself aware that she could have revealed more information than she was allowed. "She sang for me," tried to clarify the director who said several times that "when you go to war you can not go singing." Of course, moments later the director gave clues that some of the most iconic songs of the animated film will sound at one of the most epic moments of the new version.



The one that seems to be will not be Mushu, the charismatic red dragon that accompanied the protagonist in the animated film and that is, in the words of the director herself, "irreplaceable." That does not mean that there are no mythological and magical elements in this adventure, which will try to find a balance between realism and fantasy.

Of course, he made it clear that Mulán "is not a superhero" and that he has no powers or does unlikely things, but is a "strong woman" and full of courage.Caro defined this Mulán as a journey "from the intimate to the epic "that will make the public" cry and laugh "and said we live" the best time "to recover a story like this young woman who reveals herself against the injustice to fight for her family. He also said he hopes that a project as big as this will "open the door for more female directors."
