Live-Action 'Mulan' Star Liu Yifei Trained an Insane Amount for Fight Scenes!

Liu Yifei put in a lot of hard work in order to perfect her stunt scenes in the upcoming live-action Mulan film!

The actress and other cast and crew members opened up in a behind-the-scenes video released this week.

“I loved creating the stunt sequences in the film,” director Niki Caro said. “The action is explosive.”

“I’ve had three months of training process,” Liu shared. “It’s quite challenging — six or seven hours a day.”

“I’ve never ever had a six-pack in my life and I’m starting to see one come through,” actor Yoson An chimed in.

“I can do more push-ups!” Liu added.

Niki said about Liu Yifei, “She’s everything an action movie hero should be, particularly when kicking ass with a sword.”

Mulan hits theaters on March 27. (See what it will be rated.)
