Segerstrom Center for the Arts' free Movie Mondays will now present Disney's Academy Award-nominated animated feature Mulan on July 22. Mulan replaces The Lion King, previously announced for this year's Movie Mondays. Celebrating the 15th year of its release, Mulan is based on a Chinese legend about the only daughter of an aged warrior. To protect him and to save their family's honor, the high-spirited heroine disguises herself as a man and takes her father's place in the army. Along with her guardian dragon Mushu, her captain, Li Shang, a lucky cricket, Cri-kee, and her companions, Yao, Ling, and Chien-Po, Mulan battles the invading Hun army. With characters voiced by Eddie Murphy, Ming-Na Wen and Harvey Fierstein, and featuring songs by Broadway stars Donny Osmond and Lea Salonga,Mulan is the uplifting tale of the strength and bravery that lies in all of us.

• Vegetable egg rolls and chicken pot stickers with soy and sweet
chili dipping sauce (6 pieces): $5
• Grilled chicken bánh mi, pickled carrot, cucumber, cilantro
