Dwayne Johnson and Auli’i Cravalho are back to voice the iconic characters of Maui and Moana in the much-anticipated sequel. The excitement for this animated film ramped up with Disney’s release of the first trailer last Wednesday.
Moana 2 is scheduled to premiere on November 27, promising fans a fresh storyline three years after the events of the original film. In this latest adventure, Moana answers an unexpected call from her wayfinding ancestors
and embarks on a treacherous journey across the seas of Oceania.
This time around, both Auli’i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson return to reprise their beloved roles. Johnson’s enthusiastic announcement on social media only added to the hype: I can’t wait for you all to see what we’ve created!
A new direction for the franchise
The teaser hints at a significant evolution in Moana’s character arc, as she ventures beyond familiar waters into dangerous and long-lost territories. This narrative promises to expand upon the themes of navigating one’s ancestry and identity, set against stunning animation that fans have come to expect from Disney.
Looking forward what’s next
In addition to anticipating Moana 2, fans can also look forward to a live-action adaptation of the original movie, set to star Johnson. However, a new actress will portray Moana, as Auli’i Cravalho will not be reprising her role in this format.
This plethora of projects underscores Disney’s investment in not just creating memorable stories but expanding their beloved narratives across different mediums.
