Easter Eggs You Missed In The Live Action Mulan

Now that Disney's latest live-action remake of one of its animated classics is here, fans are digging into every frame of Mulan to find all the amazing Easter Eggs. But while some of them are obvious like the lucky soldier named Cricket, the discussion among the about what girl is worth fighting for, and the cameo by original Mulan voice actress Ming-Na Wen others are a bit more subtle. Here's a look at some Easter Eggs you missed in the live action Mulan.

In the animated Mulan, a falcon is a spy and scout for the villain, Shan-Yu, who leads the Hun army to attack the Emperor. The bird is a prominent accomplice, even beginning the whole film by signaling the attack against the Emperor's troops. The live-action version gives villain Böri Khan a similar aerial accomplice in a hawk, which provides reconnaissance and perches nearby as he organizes his troops.

The animated bird didn't speak to Shan-Yu, but the live-action version communicates well after transforming back into her human form. Veteran Chinese actor Li Gong plays a sorceress who, like this version of Mulan, is strong with the power of chi, described in the film as, quote, "boundless energy for life itself." The makeup, props, and costume design keep the bird motif throughout, from her talon-like throwing stars to her headdress and flowing sleeves that almost look like wings all a callback to the original film's animated avian. Keep watching the video to see all the easter eggs you missed in the live action Mulan.
