‘Lilo & Stitch' director explains why Disney's change to Cobra Bubbles'

The director responsible for bringing the remake of Lilo & Stitch to the world has just revealed why there was such a change to Cobra Bubble’s character.

Dean Fleischer Camp, the director in question shared everything with Entertainment Tonight.

He began by saying, “if the dramatic stakes of Lilo is that she's going to get separated from her sister, then you need a person who actually services those stakes in a credible way.”

For an animated movie “you can get away with that being Cobra Bubbles” but for a live action, seeing “a 6-foot-5 huge dude with 'Cobra' tattooed on his knuckles” being a social worker is not convincing he admitted.

“I don't think you get away with it the same way in a live-action film,” he even said plainly.

So “that was guiding a lot of our decision making — how to land the plane in terms of the emotional realities that were going on in the film.”

That is not the only time Mr Camp talked about the whole thing. A similar admission was made during his chat with USA Today and he got more into the nuance at the time.

“In order to buy these two girls getting separated in a live-action movie, you couldn't really have the representative of that antagonistic force be a comically huge guy with tattoos on his knuckles, who for some reason is also a social worker,” he had said.
