Disney's attempt to adapt 'Lilo & Stitch' into live-action has triggered concerns among fans, particularly surrounding the portrayal of Pleakley, an iconic character known for his comedic disguises. Director Dean Fleischer Camp revealed he aimed to retain Pleakley's signature look, which includes wearing a dress, but the character's depiction in the live-action trailer strayed from this. The shift has drawn parallels to the earlier 'Snow White' controversy, highlighting ongoing fan dissatisfaction with Disney's reimaginings of classic films.
"I have had people message me, 'Why is Pleakley not wearing a dress?' And I just want to say, I tried... I tried," Camp appeared to painstakingly reveal.
The backlash against the live-action adaptation underscores a growing trend among fans voicing their displeasure as Disney attempts to modernize its beloved animated classics.
