Yifei Liu stars as the eponymous Chinese warrior in this live-action remake of the 1998 Disney animation. When Imperial China comes under attack from the invading forces of Hun warrior Bori Khan (Jason Scott Lee), the Emperor (Jet Li) decrees that all families in the Northern Province must unite to defend their homeland and contribute one man to fight. Hua Mulan, the only child of an ailing war hero, disguises herself as a male soldier in order to take her father's place on the battlefield. Prepared for battle by Commander Tung (Donnie Yen), Mulan proves her skill and courage, sacrificing everything to defend her nation and bring honour to her family.
