The majestic grandeur of the Waitaki District is on display in the first glimpse of Disney's live-action remake of the animated classic Mulan.
On Sunday, Walt Disney Studios released the first trailer for the film, filmed in part in the Ahuriri Valley, near Omarama, last year.
About 800 to 900 crew were in the Mackenzie Basin for about a month in spring.
The film was shot by Whale Rider director New Zealander Niki Caro and stars Chinese-American actress Yifei Liu in the titular role.
Straddling the Canterbury and Otago regions, the Waitaki District is known for its dramatic landscapes featuring braided rivers, lakes, mountain ranges and tussock-swept plains.
