Lilo & Stitch is a Disney media franchise that commenced in 2002 with the release of the animated film of the same name written and directed by Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders. The combined critical and commercial success of the original film, which was a rarity for the company's feature animation studio during the era between the Disney Renaissance and the Disney Revival, led to a direct-to-video sequel film, a short film, a Disney Channel animated series, two films that accompanied said series, an anime series, an attraction in Magic Kingdom, a Tokyo Disneyland-exclusive iteration of The Enchanted Tiki Room, an interactive show in Disney's non-American parks, several video games, and merchandise.

The franchise mainly focuses on the adventures of an orphaned Hawaiian girl named Lilo Pelekai (voiced by Daveigh Chase in most media) and an artificial, extraterrestrial creature originally named Experiment 626, whom she adopts and names Stitch (voiced by Chris Sanders in all media except the anime). Stitch was originally genetically-engineered to cause chaos and destruction across the galaxy, but was rehabilitated by the Earth girl thanks to the Hawaiian concept of ʻohana, or family. Most of the sequel and spin-off material of the franchise also involve many genetic experiments similar to Stitch, who he treats as his "cousins".
