This live action remake of "Mulan" will be a LOT BETTER than the 2020 remake. It will have accurate depictions of Ancient China and still have the charm and songs of the animated 1998 movie. And FOR SURE, Mushu will be in it. Historically, China was not at war with the Huns. The enemies during the Wei Dynasty included the Xiongnu and the Rourans. When China is invaded by the Xiongnu (led by the ruthless Shan-Yu), the Emperor sends out his army to gather as many new recruits as possible. Each new recruit will be the father or eldest son of each family. Aging veteran, Hua Zhou volunteers, but given his condition, he'll totally die out there. His daughter, Mulan (who couldn't impress the town matchmaker), protests because she's worried, but her father won't listen. Late in the night, Mulan decides to don her father's old armor, disguising herself as a man to take Zhou's place. Upon seeing her sneak out, her family prays to their ancestors to watch over her. The ancestors reluctantly send the small clumsy dragon, Mushu, to be Mulan's guardian protector throughout her journey. At the camp, Mulan sees that the other recruits are rude and disgusting and they give her a hard time in almost every way. Her disguise name is "Ping". Without letting him know, Mulan also falls in love with Captain Li Shang.
