Xianniang (The Witch) - All Scenes Powers | Mulan 2020

'Mulan (2020)'
Xianniang (The Witch) - All Scenes Powers & Abilities
Xianniang is the secondary antagonist of the 2020 Disney fantasy action drama film Mulan, a live-action remake of 1998 traditionally animated classic film of the same name.
Portrayed by: Gong Li

[@calvinfujii5921]

I feel like she would’ve worked better as the true main villain of the remake.

[@kamionero]

I wanna see her in her own movie!

[@dylanweaver3743]

I actually enjoyed her. I hated that mushu was gone which is what made me hate the movie…she is possibly Mulan’s potential if she ever took that path.

[@NenadlPopovic]

I don't think so... especially since we get girl-vs-girl fights so often... She is actually based on 3 different characters: 1. villians wife from original ballad who helps Mulan to kill him 2. In 16th/17th century they expanded the ballad by adding warrior princess from opposite clan, who unites with Mulan to end war 3. Hayabusa (falcon) from 1998 animation Her sacrifice for Mulan also shows us great complex personalities of people involved in war - you can't tell wheter she was evil or not, and how sides can be changed anytime I think she is the best new character from all D remakes, and I really, really hope she will return for sequel - phoenix can heal her wounds

[@th3blackghost214]

Oh my God! Finally! I'm not the only one who thinks that 😂

[@sws212]

@@NenadlPopovic If Mulan had a sequel, she could've been the next villian minus all the superpowers. People just wanted a remake of the original Mulan and the remake bombed hard because it tried to do that and 20 other things all at once.

[@nunyabiznes33]

We can't have Mushu coz he's unrealistic and yet we get a shapshifting witch.

[@vanefarvel2946]

not witch, warrior. Allegedly..... Bltch was laughable when she said that.

[@thebluefield]

Because witches are a thing in Chinese culture/legends, and talking funny little dragons are not (sorry Mushu I love you tho)

[@nunyabiznes33]

@@thebluefield does the og Mulan story have this shapeshifting witch?

[@thebluefield]

@@nunyabiznes33 The very first original story is actually a poem! It’s called “The Ballad of Mulan” and dates back to 400 AD. Throughout history there has been many versions and adaptations since, but the original poem did not have a witch :) 🧙‍♀️

[@NenadlPopovic]

@@thebluefield original ballad had villians wife, who in turn helped Mulan to end war. In 17th century, ballad was rewritten & introduced warrior princess - who by finding out Mulan was a girl too, unites with her. Xianniang is based on these 2 ladies + falcon from animated 1998.

[@NenadlPopovic]

I wish we got detailed close up of her walking in the desert, its soooo mystical & beautiful... She is my fave new character from all D remakes, and I really hope she will return for sequel (phoenix could heal her wounds)... if not, then at least we need a spin off film just about her!

[@isis371]

there won’t be sequel, movie sucks because of mary sue mulan with a poker face through the entire movie

[@howtopronouncechange]

There will be no sequel or spin-off, to summarise, it simply sucked! Animated Mulan (idc if historically inaccurate) >>>>>>>>>> sht show live action Mulan.

Finally someone made a video of her thank you so much

[@vanefarvel2946]

edit, not made.

[@avian3548]

She explicitly said to not call her witch and now we have "The Witch" as her title. It could have at least been "Witch Warrior" or something. Anyway, great character.

[@blancarosales3400]

Even though I love the original I happened to enjoy this remake and I love her character she was awesome along with Mulan.

[@_blackbirdz_1743]

although she wasn't really a character in the original, i do like her bcuz she really had that sinister vibe towards her until she decided to go good and i like that in a character, and that she was very observant and smart knowing how Mulan wasn't really a man.

[@palmettosiucra4687]

Xianniang is based on ShanYu’s pet falcon. Just like Diaval is based on Maleficent’s pet raven. Diaval and Xianniang are bird shapeshifters based on petbirds of DisneyVillains.

I love Gong Li, she on memoirs of a geisha is everything

[@RobinPochita]

Yesssss

[@demon2051]

She's amazing!! ❤

[@jasonemanuellee6884]

For all the magical prowess Gong Li's character embodied, one could not help but wonder, why didn't she turn into a human to intercept the arrow when Bori Khan fired into to Mulan's direction? That, was the biggest wtf in this film. Also the part where 5 mins into the film, the story establishes Mulan's superhuman ability as a form of Chi, which was honestly just a stupid way of interpreting Qi.

[@tinhyeu5952]

It's a rather universal rule. The moment the villain turns into a good guy, they lose all of their OP powers, and becomes sacrificial fodder for the main character.

[@NenadlPopovic]

Excuse me, what do you mean 'why she didn't turn into human' - she transformed into a falcon CUZ SHE WAS FLYING TO SAVE MULAN - she wasn't able to fly in her human form, lol. She transformed back to woman in Mulans arms as she lost her magical abilities due to wound lol

Um well how is chi being adding in a Filipino movie wrong when its mainly put in for them

[@emberskelly4524]

@@nazyriantecartwright7810 I just think think the way it was added in made it seem a little less. Where Mulan training her skills seemed to be her just having chi and not her own strength.

[@heathersmith4042]

​@@nazyriantecartwright7810 you can't just put chi into a movie "because it's filipino." that'd be like putting santa claus into a dark tragedy and then saying "what's wrong with that? the movie was meant for americans!" the inclusion utterly betrays the themes of the original movie, and it's also not present in the actual story that it was based on, the ballad of mulan, making it neither a remake nor a faithful adaptation.

[@coltonkleins]

Lmao chi has been a thing in Kung Fu movies for decades, it's not magic, there were no dragons and crickets either, the phoenix you see in the movie is a symbol of protection
