HOLLYWOOD — A beloved Disney character is back for a new take on his classic 2002 animated movie, “Lilo & Stitch.”

The new live action “Lilo & Stitch” heads into theaters, starring a much-loved alien who disguises himself as a dog.

Stitch is quite confident that the movie will receive a warm welcome: “Easy, easy. Stitch tell. Because Stitch in it! Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because everyone loves Stitch!”

And this alien is very comfortable with his role as a movie star.

“Yeah, yeah. Come natural to Stitch. Stitch born this way!” Stitch said.

Despite being just 8 years old, the talented young actress Maia Kealoha truly embodies the character of Lilo in the live-action adaptation of “Lilo & Stitch.”

Stitch has a natural tendency to stir up trouble. Much like in the original movie, he’s an alien fugitive who ends up on Earth and gets adopted by Lilo, a 6-year-old desperately in need of a friend, who sees this new “dog” as just that. The movie focuses on family… or ohana.

“Yeah, yeah. Ohana is important that sometimes ohana can be bitter and broken and messy but, at the end of the day, Ohana always matter,” said Stitch.

Stitch seemed to find ohana in his little leading lady, Maia Kealoha.

“First big movie for Maia and Maia crush. Yeah, so good. So good!” said Stitch. “Maia going to be super, super A-list.”

“Lilo & Stitch” is rated PG and is in theaters on Friday, May 23.

The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Walt Disney Studios and this ABC station.
