Disney Sets Some More Dates For Its 2025 Movie Slate

2024 is gradually winding down, and as 2025 draws closer, that means new movies to look forward to. Many of them will be courtesy of Disney: between Marvel, Pixar, and whatever else it’s got cooking, the Mouse House will have something for everyone next year.

Per the Hollywood Reporter, Disney’s put down hard release dates for two upcoming films, Freakier Friday and the live-action Lilo & Stitch. The former, which reunites Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis after the original 2003 film, will hit theaters on August 8, 2025. Along with its original leading stars, the body-swapping sequel brings back much of the first film’s cast (like Steven Tobolowsky, Mark Harmon, Chad Michael Murray, and Christina Vidal Mitchell) and adds newcomers Manny Jacinto and Julia Soong. That same day, Warner Bros. is releasing a Leonardo DiCaprio-led film from Paul Thomas Anderson.

Meanwhile, Lilo & Stitch will drop on May 23, 2025. Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp, the remake of Disney’s 2002 animated classic stars newcomer Maia Kealoha as the young Lilo, who adopts a blue-furred dog named Stitch (voiced by his original actor, Chris Sanders). But Stitch isn’t a weird-looking dog, he’s actually an alien experiment created by a mad scientist, and who recently crash-landed in Hawaii trying to escape the space police. Along with Kealoha and Sanders, the cast includes Sydney Agudong, Kaipo Dudoit, Zach Galifanakis, Courtney B. Vance, and Billy Magnussen.

Disney movies usually do well during the late spring-summer period, but Lilo & Stitch will have some sizable competition in Mission Impossible 8. The next installment in Paramount’s spy-action franchise has had several production setbacks (like the Hollywood strikes) and might not be Dead Reckoning Part 2 anymore, but it’s still got a lot of steam behind it. People do love to see Tom Cruise do a wild stunt or two, after all.
