Hollywood filmmakers, including creators of the 1998 Disney fílm Mulan, will start a “discovery trip” to Mulans birthplace —Huangpi district in Hubei province this week.
During two-day visit, they will see a number of Mulan-themed performances, such as horse fighting show and local opera. They also will visit (place) of historical interest, like the Mulan Mountain and the Generals Temple.
In the 20 years since the Disney film came out(it) director Tony Bancroft hasn't been to the land of Mulan's roots. “For me, it's more than a circle tour of my favorite character was born. I'm also doing my homework for the next film,” he said.
“China used to be closed off to Westerners, thus (create) a mystery, but in the last few years, U. S. films(explore) the Chinese culture and environment, which has opened audiences to a whole new world. I believe the tale of Mulan appeals' to Westerners mainlyit's about a daughter's respect for her family (especial) her father.” Bancroft added.
A live-action remake of the 1998 film (expect) to hit theaters in 2019. The Walt Disney Studios has announced that Chinese actress Liu Yifei, also (know) as Crystal Liu, is going to star in the classic Chinese tale
