UPDATE JULY 14 2017: It appears Ming-Na Wen was in the studio recording dialogue for the upcoming Wreck-It Ralph sequel. In Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2, Vanellope's game 'Sugar Rush' is broken so Ralph and Vanellope search the internet for a new part. Along the way they meet the Disney Princesses (Belle, Ariel, Pocahontas, Jasmine, Tiana, Rapunzel, Merida, Anna, Mulan, Moana and C3P0 for some reason) and all of the Disney Princesses voice actresses reprised their roles for the film.
News on Kingdom Hearts 3 hasn't been coming as fast as fans hoped despite two Kingdom Hearts releases earlier this year. Hopefully with the latest ReMIX collection in stores it means that news for Kingdom Hearts 3 could be coming fast, especially since E3 is only two months away! Square Enix and Disney could debut a new Kingdom Hearts 3 trailer there, and since it's a convention set in Los Angeles, it's possible English voice recording for a trailer could be underway, which was previously done for the E3 2015 trailer.
If this is the case, we might be seeing a familiar face in Kingdom Hearts 3! Ming-Na Wen, voice actress for Mulan, posted a photo on her Instagram on March 7th 2017 with the caption "Being Mulan today. I love whenever I get to record as #Mulan. @Disney"
Ming-Na Wen reprised Mulan for Kingdom Hearts II, in which Sora found himself helping Mulan join the Army. If Ming-Na is in the studio for Kingdom Hearts 3, this could indicate that fans will be returning to The Land of Dragons. However, Ming-Na has also voiced Mulan for other projects, such as Sophia the First and Disney Infinity 3.0. The latter unfortunately shut down however it is possible that Mulan will be reappearing in Sophia the First as she did tag Disney in the photo and not Square Enix.
Would you be excited to revisit The Land of Dragons in Kingdom Hearts 3?

Oh yeah, forgot about E3, lol. ( I've pretty much lost interest in most things these days... Pokemon and Kingdom Hearts being the only things I still care about.) Idk what more we could possibly do in the Land of Dragons, honestly... but maybe they want another shot at it with all the new technology at hand? Make it more vast and colorful...
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Can't say i have any interest whatsoever in going back to that world.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I'm really excited about this, but part of me thinks this is for another project (though I dunno what else she could be in besides Sofia, and even that seems like a bit of a stretch). As someone who loves both Mulan as a character and the movie she stars in, I would LOVE to go back to the Land of Dragons in KH3. The only problem is that I just don't know what more they could do with that world unless they do a loose adaptation of the direct-to-dvd sequel (pls no Square). Perhaps she could return as a summon?
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
If we're going back in KH3, it damn well better not be for that shitty ass Mulan 2.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I'm a bit indifferent towards this
I thought Land of Dragons was fine in KH2, but I can't say It'd be my first pick of a returning world for KH3.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Love Mulan but there are much more worthy candidates for returning worlds in KH3. In other words, I'd vote against its return. There's just no interesting story or locations left to make a return worth while unless they got one hell of an original story to tell.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Mulan, Agent May, Chun-Li team-up incoming. Chun-Li was in Wreck it Ralph, she can count.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I am very interested in what story they could tell. Personally, since some have speculated that in KH3 they might explore the sequels of the movies (Aladdin 3 and kinda Big Hero 6 because it's a followup story from the movie) maybe they could do that, new stories to be told in the classic disney worlds, while the newer movies get somewhat the same story, like Tangled.
And they don't need to bring the whole Land of Dragons world, they could just bring back Mushu and Mulan as a dual summon.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Kingdom Hearts 3 at least so far seems to be much more focused on original Disney stories again, thank god lol, so I feel going back to Land of Dragons could be really great? Even if they do use some plot from the sequel, I guess I thought it was one of the more enjoyable ones. But not in the sense that it compared to the original at all lol. Also, I am in the camp that literally nothing other than Agrabah should return from KH1 at this point. So we need returning worlds from somewhere lol, so KH2 is the logical choice :P
I forgot about Sophia the First, so yeah that is quite possible for this unfortunately...I really want it to be for KH myself.

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]I thought it was hinted Marluxia may have a role in the Tangled world as well, so I genuinely think they are going back to what they did in KH1...like use the same themes as the movies but then add in KH elements. At least so far. Especially since we also know the plot of Olympus involves Sora getting his strength back after the events of 3D. I guess we only have 3 confirmed Disney worlds but its a good sign so far.[/FONT]
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
To have Mulan back in KH III would be amazing! It's one of my favorite world's and every time I watch Mulan 2 I say it would be good for KH III worlds, too. But yeah, I hope this is for KH and not Disney Jr. That would be disappointing now...
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
It was an alright world, not one of my favorites but I didn't dislike it either. Would be an okay choice for KH3 I think, they could definitely do worse. I'd rather have this to be a returning world than go to Halloween Town or Agrabah for the hundreth time.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
this is trcky chaser one had this could be for kh3 on the hand this could be sofia but i think this could be kh3
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Isn't this Magic Fireworks thing going on? (I think the name's "Happily Ever After") Where animators re-animate 2D Disney scenes that then get projected onto Cinderella's Castle? Might be for that thing.
Either way, I didn't like Land of the Dragons in KH2, so...

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
this is on va thing all it is fireworks pyrotechnics, original animation, plus a heart-tugging original score and if that did had va they would use old clips for it from the movies instead of bringing in the va to recored some lines
Why would they use old clips instead of bringing back VA? Also, I'm not even sure if it's re-animated scenes or new scenes.

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I want to doubt that Land Of Dragons is returning, but with E3 and D23 Expo happening in the coming months, the timing works.
Land of Dragons was bad in KHII, but so were all the worlds that were a piss-poor synopsis of the movie with Sora taped on. With KHIII stated to have the Disney words more tied to the games' plot, so if this world appears, I'm willing to give it a second chance.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
World was okay, but I don't see any reason to go back there.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Ming Na voicing Mulan for an Unknown Project hmm interesting what could it be?

Seconded.
If KH III's worlds are as well-made as they're assuring us, I wouldn't mind re-visiting a bunch of KH II worlds to give them justice.
...they can leave Port Royal out though.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I would prefer Port Royal returning over Land of Dragons. At least the Pirate films have four sequels worth of content for KH3
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I would say UNFORTUNATELY the Pirates film got four sequels, but whatever.
I would seriously not want any of that "content" in KH. Heck, I didn't want it in theaters.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
As long as the world isn't as bad as it was in KH2 then I'm fine with it returning. Don't know what they could do for plot other than the sequel, unless they go the KH1 route and mix it's own plot with parts of the movie.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
this is intresing to specualte it could be a lot of things at this point from kingdom hearts 3,sofia the first to the happily ever after show the best she could of done is not mention she working unlike someone we know *cough jessie mccarthy*
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I actually think using a world that doesn't have many movies to use as plot is better, because I much prefer original plots to putting Sora in the movie plot. Just use the setting and characters and make something new, that way it'll be easier to tie it into the whole plot too and the worlds might feel less like useless filler.

Yeah I agree. I don't wanna play some movie plot so that wouldn't be much of a problem.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
If this is for KH3 then I just don't know what they're thinking. From what we've heard, KH3 is gonna be light on the Disney returning worlds so why would you waste a spot on a return to Land of Dragons. I liked the role it played in KH2 but what is there to make a return there worth while when there are other worlds with but better sequel material to use.
Gimme Agrabah so I can see Al's Dad and the Vanishing Isle. Gimme Port Royal so I can see the Davy Jones saga and a boss battle with the Kraken. Hell, gimme Castle of Dreams cause Twist in Time was a pretty good sequel. Nearly anything but Mulan II which was a lame a$$ escort mission which made Mushu unbearable.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Honestly? I'd take Land of Dragons over Port Royal and ESPECIALLY Agrabah any day.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
The WORLD doesn't necessarily need to come back and be playable again for Mulan to show up. Peter Pan showed up as a summon in KH2, and he had been a party member in KH1
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Plot Twist: Kairi was not a Princess but was used in KH1 because she's a Guardian and Ansem did some maguffin to her to make her of pure Light, and Mulan is actually one of the seven Princesses.
The heroes will defeat the Norts but Xehanort will still get the X-Blade due to this.

I wouldn't. What exactly would make you excited to revisit Land of Dragons again because Agrabah and Port Royal have way more interesting content left to explore. I liked LoD in KH2 but I just don't think there's anything interesting left to do in that world.

There wan't anything in the first place, that's the thing.
It's not because we felt we did everything already in KH II, it's because this could be a chance to actually make us do something there.
[SIZE=2]At least for me, I can't speak for everyone.
And I only talk about the gameplay and exploration possibilities, I'm not really interested in any movie-related plot and agree that original stories would be better.

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I just hate Agrabah and Port Royal, that's all there is to it. Especially Agrabah.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
If they bring Port Royal back then they'd have to think of some new gimmick to make it as unique as it was in KH2.
KH2 used the moonlight and magic status effects, but magic is going to have those effects on all enemies now. I haven't seen the movies in some time so it's hard to think of ideas that would work.
I mean, they don't HAVE to use Mulan II. I personally found the second visit to be much more interesting than the first, so they could do something like that.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?

Ouch. I think Agrabah has been a solid world in KH. Not great but particularly bad in any of its appearances (cept KH2 maybe). And I'm a big POTC fan so I loved seeing it in KH2.

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Port Royal and Agrabah would at least give us new locations. The most I could see with LoD is a wider landscape and livelier imperial city compared to KH2
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I guess it (not surprisingly) comes down to how KH III will perform.
One could think a million ways to do a world in a cool manner with tons of interesting areas, but there's not enough information.
A possible LoD could be one or two new areas or, say, a gigantic rice field with tons of exploration and gimmicks. Who knows.

Except that both Agrabah and Halloween Town have unexplored areas that can be rendered beautifully in Unreal Engine 4 as opposed to The Land of the Dragons which has already shown all of it's locations from its source material, so yeah, let me visit Agrabah and Halloween Town for the hundredth time.

Uh?
If we're counting, like, the human houses or the shadows under the stairs as areas for Halloween Town, then I'll say we never saw Mulan's house, so that's an area too.
Seriously, I'm not even that big of a fan, but all these claims that LoD has already showed everything it could... I don't see how.
Really, we saw almost everything worthwhile in Nightmare Before Christmas.
But you're right on Agrabah, can't believe we still never set foot in the goshdarn palace.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
The palace is one of KH mysteries.
Is the sultan even there?Did Jasmine kill off the sultan and block the entrance so no one can enter?Why is it always blocked off?Is that palace even real?Maybe it's an illusion.
All these questions and no answers.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
it hard to speculate where this photo take place in becuase it look like the skylark studio and the same time it doesn't so kh3 can't be rule out just yet
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
It's definitely not for Sofia the First - Mulan has already appeared earlier in the series, and the princesses only ever make one guest appearance.
I honestly don't believe we're seeing Land of Dragons ever again, so my guess would be that she's recording for the new Happily Ever After fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom in Disney World.

Snow covered mountains location in LoD possibly. The blueish hue caused by afternoon shadows. Well that's all I saw besides a piece of spinach between that guy's teeth.

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
if mulan in kh3 it will probally be something orginal like how big hero 6 will be a after story, tangled might involved marluxia if those nobodies have anything o do with him, and hercules will train sora so mulan probally be somthing orginal if it in kh3
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Yeaah, let's not jump to conclusions though. Just because BH6 has an original plot, doesn't mean Tangled and Mulan will, too. But I sure hope so
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Man, imagining what possible original plots could happen in the Disney worlds re-ignites my will to speculate (probs because unlike the main story there's enough material to xD)

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
While I don't think that this is for Kingdom Hearts (but I could be wrong, and I would happily be so), I actually would be okay with seeing The Land of Dragons reappear.
Mulan 2 was actually one of the better Disney sequels to me, personally, so I wouldn't mind if they went down that route.
Or if they just came up with a new idea for the world completely, that ties into KHIII, like some people have said.
So I'm down for this, personally. I want some returning worlds, tbh (and 2D animation films in KHIII in general). And this one (if it comes back) will definitely have returned less than others have.
Plus, just imagine what this world could look like with the Unreal Engine 4 - it would be absolutely gorgeous. So sign me up for the next war!:D
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
Any opportunity they have to make Land of Dragons more interesting I'm up for. It was so bland in Kingdom Hearts II, a semi-open world Land of Dragons is just what I need to get into that world. Climbing up a snowy mountain Breath of the Wild style in a Kingdom Hearts game is just my cup of tea.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I'll rather climb some snowy mountains in Arendelle.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I'll rather climb some snowy mountains in Arendelle.
Of course I'd like that too, Land of Dragons would be more varied in that sense. China's such a diverse landscape, I feel like the majority of the Arendelle campaign would be spent just seeing a whole bunch of snow (gorgeous landscapes, though).
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
My issue with Land of dragons is it's one of the very few worlds where we've pretty much seen all the important landmarks from the film so it returning would just be retreading old ground with a new coat of paint.
It isn't like Hercules or Agrabah where there's still a good amount of unused locations to make the world feel fresh.Land of dragons would more or less be the same but instead more space between the locations we are already familiar with.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
i dont think that it either though from what i understand that show is just firework,new animations and music score and form i understand she didn't sing in mulan it was lea salonga
That's irrelevant - in Wishes, the previous fireworks show, all the characters had spoken lines that were recorded specifically for the show. I'd imagine they're doing the same for Happily Ever After, and it's pretty likely that Mulan is part of it.

Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I would prefer Port Royal returning over Land of Dragons. At least the Pirate films have four sequels worth of content for KH3
Mulan has a sequel as well but never mind that--you actually believe that Disney sequels would adapt into quality KH content?!
Although I'm not able to comment on the Pirates franchise as I'm not into it and thus having seen most of it, 99% of Disney sequels are terrible.
That being said, I'm neutral about The Land of Dragons, apart from the team stamina exercises, I didn't mind it but it wouldn't be a top choice of mine for a returning world. Enchanted Dominion, The Pridelands and Beast's Castle are examples of previously introduced world's I'd rather see again.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
KH has already done a Disney sequel. Namely, Return of Jafar. Not to say it was good or not (though I do enjoy Agrabah, generally), but if it was done once it can be done again.
Oh, yeah, also Tron Legacy.
Re: Speculation: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be Kingdom Hearts 3?
I don't know if I'd be down for a return trip to LoD. Maybe if they could make the mountain less... lame.
I would like to see Mulan herself return as a character, though. I feel like as a whole, the KH series would be better if they could find unique ways to incorporate Disney characters into the main plot, and not just have them confined to the respective plots of their respective worlds.
If they do revisit LoD, please give them original plot. Not a retreat. And not that unforgivable sequel.

Oh, yeah, also Tron Legacy.
I wasn't arguing that it couldn't be done but that it shouldn't be.
I'll admit several flaws I made in judgment:
- I'm biased in regard to Pirates because I'm not into the franchise.
- I wasn't able to see Return of Jafar content in KHII's Agrabah because I don't know the film. I saw it once as a child but can only recall having my dad return it after I watched it (and it might not have been all of it) because I didn't like it.
- Tron: Legacy was used quite well but I have trouble considering it a sequel because I don't know the first one.
Regardless of never having seen them, I'd take Pirate sequels over their adapting the Mulan sequel, the Mulan sequel is the worst.
If, however, it's true that KHIII is promising all original adaptions rather than just adapting the film plots there is hope for just about any world. Like I said I wasn't too opposed to Land of the Dragons. There are just others that I would choose to return to first.

what i'll say is, look at olympus coliseum. we're visiting for yet another time and each game we've been there, it hasnt used a preexisting plot. on the contrary, sora is returning to learn how to regain his strength; a personal reason which relates to III's plot. mulan II's plot is honestly stupid, but perhaps the themes of trust and, even love (in a platonic, paupou sort of way) can be used for character development. personally it doesnt make much sense to return and if they did i'd prefer an original plot because direct to dvd disney is sort of bad but hey, guess it worked for country of muskateers so i dont doubt what the III team can do.

Is it confirmed that Disney writers are working on all the Disney worlds or is it just Big Hero 6's world?

i dont believe either was confirmed, just that disney was "working much closer" with SE for the development and production of the game.

Pretty sure the latter was confirmed in the world's reveal.

The show is completely unrelated to KH, Disney World and KH rarely intersect, save for references in attraction flow.

Wreck-It Ralph 2 is going to be the Deadpool of Disney movies, this will be a meta Disney jackpot.
Re: UP- it's not: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be KH3?
they really going all out in wreck i ralph 2
Re: UP- it's not: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be KH3?
I actually think her recording her voice for Wreck-It Ralph 2 is a LOT more exciting than the idea of her returning in KH3. That scene they described at the panel with all the Disney Princesses and the droids from Star Wars sounds incredible!
Re: UP- it's not: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be KH3?
I felt that Land of Dragons didn't live up to it's potential so I was excited to see what they could do with a bit of a fresh start, but I'm relieved it's for something as amazing as WIR2. I wanna see that Princesses scene sooooo bad!

This 100%. Complaining about not wanting Land of Dragons because it was mediocre in KH2 makes no sense to me, I want it to be given a second chance. Especially since, in my opinion, the writing definitely sounds like its gonna be better in this game than KH2. At least the Disney worlds, which is all that matters for the return of Land of Dragons.
I also think its a good potential returning world that hasn't been overused as hell *side eyes Wonderland and Halloween Town*
All that being said, this scene sounds incredible in Wreck it Ralph.
Re: UP- it's not: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be KH3?
One of the problems with Land of dragons returning is it doesn't have any new material to work with when it comes to the environments,we will only be going back to all the places we've already visited but with bigger empty space in between.
That doesn't sound appealing.
With Hercules and Aladdin there's at least unused locations they could use to make the worlds feel new.

I actually do really want Aladdin still cuz of the King of Thieves characters and environments.
I guess you are kind of right, yet I still feel it could be fun to give Mulan the representation it deserves...but yeah most big places from the first movie were covered. And there aren't many places in the second movie that are super different anyway? I remember the town at the beginning that had like a bamboo grove, and then a festival, a canyon where they got ambushed and Shang fake died, and then the last place which had that giant dragon statue. I mean, I guess saying it all like that...I could be okay with some of it, but I also don't want a rehash of Mulan 2...even more than I didn't want one of Mulan 1 lol. If they could make an original story to tie all that together, and maybe some places from the original to boot, I dunno, I would be satisfied I guess :P
Re: UP- it's not: Ming-Na Wen recording as Mulan for unknown project - could it be KH3?

It isn't. It was for Wreck-It Ralph 2.
