Disney's announcement of "Mulan" live-action movie has elicited mixed reactions from the fans. For the most part, the fans are very excited to see their favorite Oriental heroine on the big screen.

'Mulan' Live-Action Movie: Fa Mulan - Damsel In Distress?

The "Mulan" animation was well-received and distinctly different from the other Disney princess animations, mainly because Fa Mulan was not the damsel in distress - she was the hero in the story. This is the main reason why fans are reportedly enraged with the possibility that "Mulan" live-action movie will have a different plot.

The said plot of "Mulan" live-action movie will put Fa Mulan's character in a different light. The former kick-ass heroine's character who successfully saves her country is proposed to be a damsel in distress in the "Mulan" live-action movie. To make things more enraging for the fans, Fa Mulan will reportedly be rescued by an English traveller.

As of writing, Disney has yet to give a statement regarding the possible plot of "Mulan" live-action movie. However, the fans are not taking any chances and have already started a petition to preserve the original plot of the animation.

'Mulan' Live-Action Movie Cast

Once again, "Mulan" live-action movie is enveloped in a shroud of controversy as the possible cast is under fire as well. The fans are hoping for an Asian cast to make "Mulan" live-action movie more realistic.

Reports saying that Jennifer Lawrence is the top choice of Disney to play Fa Mulan in "Mulan" live-action movie is a big disappointment to the fans. However, take this report with a grain of salt as Disney has yet to release the final set actors and actresses for "Mulan" live action movie.
