The studio made the announcement in an Instagram post, timed to June 26, aka 6-26.
The number refers to Stitch, the wild blue-haired alien, known as Experiment 626 in the movie.
Confirmation about works on ‘Lilo & Stitch 2’ comes after the original earned over $923 million worldwide, having a reported budget of about $100 million.
The movie started out small, meant to be a Disney+ original, which fits its fun, wild, Stitch-like energy — but then Disney changed their minds and decided to release it in theatres instead.
