# Mulan (2009)

2009 · 113 min · Drama, Action, War · People's Republic of China, United States


## Synopsis

Mulan: Rise of a Warrior, also known as Mulan: Legendary Warrior, is a 2009 Chinese action war film starring Zhao Wei as the titular protagonist. The director, Jingle Ma, explained that the film is vastly different from the 1998 Walt Disney animated film and stated, "Zhao Wei's appearance is closer to that in my imagination". Zhao Wei was cast by Ma as Hua Mulan over previously considered actresses Zhang Ziyi, Michelle Yeoh, and Liu Yifei, the latter of whom would later play the titular character in Disney's remake of the 1998 animated film.
