Disney Studios is also making the film, but Sony's take will be based on the Chinese legend of Hua Mulan, the young female warrior who joins the Chinese Imperial Army, taking her ill father's spot, reported Deadline.
Sony's version is being designed for the international marketplace.
It'll be co-produced with the Chinese, with a Chinese lead, and will be done through Sony Pictures International Productions.
