Two major original 'Lilo & Stitch' cast members are joining the live-action movie.
Disney seems to be heating up the call sheet for its live-action Lilo & Stitch adaptation, and it appears the studio has now found two main pieces ready to return to the Hawaiian Islands. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Chris Sanders, who voiced Stitch in the classic 2002 animated film, is in final negotiations to voice the character once again in the upcoming remake.
Sanders was an indelible part of the 2002 film. In addition to voicing the dog-like blue extraterrestrial, Sanders also directed the film alongside Dean DeBlois and wrote its screenplay. Even though the upcoming film is a live-action remake, don't expect to see Sanders onscreen, as it has been confirmed that Stitch will remain a CGI creation.

Like Sanders, Carrere also returned to voice Nani in Lilo & Stitch: The Series. However, it seemed unlikely that she would be involved with the upcoming film, given that Sydney Elizabeth Agudong was already cast as the live-action Nani.
While Sanders will be returning to the role of Stitch, he will not be getting in the director's chair again. Lilo & Stitch will be directed by Dean Fleischer Camp off a screenplay by Chris Kekaniokalani Bright. Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback are producing the project. Executive producers include Rideback's Ryan Halprin alongside Tom Peltzman.
No release date has been announced for the film, but production is reportedly underway in Hawaii. Lilo & Stitch is slated to be a Disney+ release.
