The Live Action Lilo & Stitch Hoax refers to a series of unsettling, fan-made, or AI-generated images that claimed to be 'leaked' production stills of Disney’s live-action remake. These images typically depict a hyper-realistic, often wet and furry, version of Experiment 626 that leans heavily into the uncanny valley. First appearing around 2022 on platforms like Twitter and Facebook, the hoax successfully tricked thousands of users into believing Disney was making a 'horror' version of the classic character. Today, the template is used to mock bad CGI, express dread, or highlight the absurdity of modern live-action adaptations of beloved childhood cartoons.
