“Through her love, faith, and unwavering belief in ohana, the Hawaiian concept of family, Lilo helps unlock Stitch’s heart and gives him the ability to care for someone else.”
The cast includes newcomer Maia Kealoha, who is playing Lilo; Billy Magnussen as the one-eyed alien Pleakley, Sydney Elizabeth Agudong (NCIS) as Nani, Lilo’s older sister and legal guardian, the original voice of Nani, Tia Carrere, will be portraying a new character named Mrs. Kekoa, while actress Amy Hill, who played Mrs. Hasagawa in the animated movie and series, will play a new character named Tūtū.
