To no one’s surprise, “Lilo & Stitch 2” is in the planning stages at the House of Mouse.
Disney today announced the sequel to the popular live-action, Hawaii-filmed audience favorite, which so far has grossed $914 million – and counting – as the summer’s hot ticket.
“Should’ve known we couldn’t keep a secret,” Disney said on social media. “A 626 Day surprise: ‘Lilo & Stitch 2’ is now in development!”
Numerically speaking, June 26 – 626 Day – ties into Stitch’s origins as Experiment 626.
The sequel logically means the ultimate callback of the first live-action cast, including Maia Kealoha, Sydney Elizebeth Agudong, Kaipo Dudoit, Tia Carrera, Amy Hill, Billy Magnussen, Hannah Waddingham, Chris Sanders, Courtney B. Vance and Zach Galifianakis.
The hit film was directed by Dean Fleischer Camp from a screenplay by Chris Kekaniokalani Bright and Mike Van Waes.
