The Secret of Mulan is the 1998 entry in the series of Secret films released direct to video by UAV/Sterling Entertainment, which generally was an adaptation of a popular theatrical animated film released in a given year, such as The Secret of Anastasia and The Secret of the Hunchback. This film, written by Katherine Lawrence and Christy Marx, is based on the poem about Hua Mulan, which had been made as a film by Walt Disney Pictures the same year as Mulan, and combined with elements from another popular 1998 animated film, A Bug's Life. The film is notable as an early example of the work of the composer-lyricist team of Megan Cavallari and David Goldsmith (lyricist), and some copies were released with a CD soundtrack attached to the back cover.Synopsis
The film features an anthropomorphic caterpillar named Mulan who takes her father's place in war against Mala-Khan using the pseudonym "Hua" (originally the character's surname, which here is pronounced "hoohah"). She leaves with her father's servant, Ewue.
