Disney fans, the moment you've been waiting for has finally arrived: Mulan is here.
Yes, the live-action remake of the 1998 children's classic drops on Disney+ on Friday after the coronavirus pandemic forced distributors to skip its planned cinematic release.
More than 20 years after its original release, the legendary Chinese warrior has been brought back to life by acclaimed filmmaker Niki Caro.
For those unfamiliar with the Disney classic, it follows a fearless young woman (the titular Mulan) who risks everything to become one of the greatest warriors her country has ever known.

When the Emperor of China issues a decree that one man per family must serve in the Imperial Army to defend the country from northern invaders, Hua Mulan, the eldest daughter of an honored warrior, steps in to take the place of her ailing father.
Disguised as a man, Hua Jun, she is tested every step of the way and must harness her inner strength and embrace her true potential.
The epic journey sees her transform into an honored warrior and earn the respect of a nation...and a proud father.

The international cast includes Yifei Liu as Mulan, Donnie Yen as Commander Tung and Tzi Ma as Zhou.
The long-awaited Disney+ release comes just one week after Christina Aguilera dropped her new rendition of Reflection along with a brand new music video.
The song is all about Mulan embracing her true identity as a warrior and not worrying about who she is supposed to be, in the eyes of her family.
Fans hoping to watch the movie will need to sign up to the Disney+ subscription service (costing £5.99 per month) and make a one-off payment of £19.99 to watch Mulan. It's then yours to watch however many times you want. Alternatively, you could wait until December when it will be streaming for free.

Mulan was originally expected to hit the big screen on 27th March, but was pushed back due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The film, starring Liu Yifei, had a rumoured a $200 million (£159 million) budget, and if early reviews are anything to go by - it is going to be epic.
