This long-time classic character from Disney will be introduced to the world once again through its remade version this year, and not just a cartoon but as a real-life person. Everyone may have already seen its animated version, but this live remake will be an exceptional version compared to the usual cartoon introduced to Disney audiences.
This version features different scenes and will not be the same direct cartoon-based storytelling. This new film has new roles and characters to watch out for, and it also doesn’t come with musical scenes unlike the original Disney anime last 1998.

We are sure to be in awe watching her do the fight scenes and be the strong female lead one can expect of the classic character that is Mulan.
The Invisible Man
Being one of the most classic films ever created by Universal, The Invisible Man is truly a masterpiece when it comes to bringing thrill and suspense to its audiences.
