Rumor on Chinese social media says that Australian actress Natasha Liu Bordizzo may have been cast in the part. Her only other major film credit was in Netflix' sequel to Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.
Disney's Weibo page had to step in and say the role was still in the casting stages, but that's never stopped a rumor before.
The 22-year-old former law student from Sydney is also a black belt band one in taekwondo and has trained in kempo karate. Her father is of Italian heritage while her mother is Chinese, but Bordizzo describes herself as “very Australian”. Apparently she got more in tune with her Chinese heritage after being cast in the Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon sequel. In the past, she equated her Mandarin to that of a young child so basically still in the learning stages.
The movie is officially set for release on November 2, 2018.
