SO excited that the live action movie @Mulan will finally be released very soon! Sept 4th. Right to your homes!! If you don’t already have it, get Disney+ now! It’s been a long awaited project that had to be postponed in the beginning of the year when all the theatres got shut down…but now we can reveal this beautiful movie and unveil the songs and music videos that I recorded in both English and Spanish. Including a reimagined “Reflection” to coincide with this movie’s score. A very nostalgic and special moment — seeing as this movie started it all for me. Leading to a record deal and the rest of my career to follow. Disney has always been the beginning of many magical things for me and I’m proud to now share this one! #LoyalBraveTrue … tomorrow @disney #Mulan

In a teaser post a few days before the release of her newest music video, Aguilera advised her fans to “stay tuned,” which immediately prompted fans to speculate about what the Grammy Award-winning artist had coming our way. As the news of Aguilera’s song for soundtrack became announced in March of this year, fans became curious and excited about how Aguilera would top her 1998 single, “Reflection,” from the animated Mulan film.


The success of “Reflection” jump-started Aguilera’s musical career, leading her to record her debut album, Christina Aguilera. She has recorded a total of seven albums throughout her musical career, garnering her one of the world’s best-selling musical artists. In commemoration of her success, Aguilera will re-release “Reflection” as we get closer to the release of Mulan.

“Loyal Brave True” was directed by Niki Caro, who also directed the Mulan remake. Caro delivers the imagery of vulnerability and strength from the film into the music video. With fierce dreamscapes in a crimson backdrop, Aguilera sings in an elegant gown with images of Yefei Lui, who portrays the titular character of the film.

After postponing the release original March release date, Disney announced Mulan will be available to stream starting Friday, September 4, on Disney+ for a fee of $29.99.
