Disney made the sequel announcement in a video shared to Instagram.

The video finds the live-action Stitch driving a tiny pink convertible with Hawaiian license plates that read \"2 FAST.\"

\"Get ready!\" Stitch says as he drives on to the Walt Disney Studios lot in California. \"Here we go! Stitch want! Stitch want!\"

Stitch then uses his tires to write a message on the parking lot pavement that reads \"Lilo and Stitch 2.\"

\"Should've known he couldn't keep a secret,\" the post's caption reads. \"A 626 day surprise: #LiloAndStitch 2 is now in development!\"

The live-action \"Lilo & Stitch\" opened May 23. It has grossed over $920 million worldwide.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News.
