“So, the moment we met each other there was an instant connection going. Everyone on set, the cast members and a lot of the crew members, were Chinese,” said Yoson An (Chen Honghui), who hails from Macau and New Zealand. Rosalind Chao, who plays Mulan’s mother, Li, compared the experience to becoming an “instant family.” The new “Mulan” boasts a budget of around $200 million - making it Disney’s most expensive live-action remake to date - and is the studio’s first to feature a cast of actors all of Asian descent, an experience that many of the cast members took to heart. Aguilera also sings the new tune “Loyal, Brave, True” for the upcoming film’s soundtrack. Ming-Na Wen, who voiced the title character in the 1998 animated feature “Mulan,” was on hand for the big premiere, as was Christina Aguilera, who sang the original film’s hit song “Reflection” and re-recorded a new version for the live-action film.
