Disney just announced that there will be a Moana 2 which will be release later this year. Disney originally announced that they will release a Moana series for Disney Plus but it was later redeveloped into a film.
The company also released a 16-second teaser that shows Moana, going to a new island and then blowing her “shell trumpet,” hinting that the film will pickup where the first movie left, she and her people embracing their voyaging heritage.
Here is the premise of the film;
After receiving an unexpected call from her wayfinding ancestors, Moana must journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she’s ever faced.
The film will be directed by Dave Derrick Jr. with music by Grammy® winners Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, Grammy nominee Opetaia Foa’i, and three-time Grammy winner Mark Mancina. No word yet on who voice-cast are but it’s safe to say that Auliʻi Cravalho (Moana) and Dwayne Johnson (Maui) will be returning to reprise their role.
“Moana 2” opens in theaters on Nov. 27, 2024.
