Disney Unveils Angel, Pink Counterpart to Beloved Alien Stitch in Upcoming Sequel

Disney has given fans a sneak peek into the upcoming 'Lilo & Stitch 2' film, revealing its newest addition: Stitch's pink counterpart, Angel.

Meet Angel, Stitch's New Love Interest

The intergalactic alien was first introduced in 'Lilo & Stitch: The Series' and is set to become a key part of the sequel's story.

Director Chris Sanders, who co-created and voiced Stitch in both animated and live-action versions, will be back at the helm for the new film. Jonathan Eirich, producer of the initial live-action remake, will also return as producer via Rideback.

The release date for 'Lilo & Stitch 2' has been set for May 26, 2028, marking the beginning of the long Memorial Day weekend.

Fans can expect a brand-new story from the beloved franchise, with no direct connection to the original film's plot. The upcoming sequel will follow in the footsteps of Disney's successful release pattern in 2025.

The first 'Lilo & Stitch' live-action adaptation was a massive success, grossing over $1 billion at the box office and cementing its place as a modern classic.
