Niki Caro (The Zookeeper's Wife) will direct the live-action Mulan movie for Disney. That, as The Hollywood Reporter points out, will make her and Ava DuVerney (for A Wrinkle in Time) the only female directors for movies that have over $US100 million ($130 million) in the budget.

And it's generating a heated debate about the way Hollywood makes Asian stories.
