So rest assured die hard Disney fans there will be music in the movie! Caro also addressed the question on everyone's mind. Is Mulan going to be Asian?!?! Well she had the following to say in the same interview with THR “In all my work that is centered in cultures not my own, I hope that comes through, because that is incredibly important to me. When I made Whale Rider, I saw that to be specific and authentic is to be universal, and I've continued to work in an identical way ever since. As the projects get bigger, the more certain I am that cultural authenticity and specificity is the only way to approach my work.”
