Moana is back with first image from Disney sequel

April 7, 2024 by EJ Moreno

Moana is back, and she’s aged into her role as protector of the seas. In a newly released image from Moana 2, we see our titular hero noticeably older and ready to take on adventures that came her way. 

For those who don’t remember, the film was once planned as a series for the Disney+ streaming service but has now morphed into a theatrical movie with a release set for this November.

Per Disney’s new announcement: “Moana is on an expansive journey in search of people beyond the shores of Motunui. Joined by Maui and a brand-new crew of unlikely seafarers, Moana must journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she’s ever faced.”

Auli’i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson are returning for the project. Cravalho will voice Moana, and Johnson will tackle the Hawaiian god Maui again. Disney is also developing a separate live-action reimagining although production has paused with the development of this animated sequel its release pushed back to 2026. 

The sequel is directed by Dave Derrick Jr.wFoa’iusicic by Grammy winners Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, Grammy nominee OpetaiFoa’i’i, and three-time Grammy winner Mark Mancina.

Moana 2 will release on November 27th 2024.
