As a seasoned gamer and a devoted fan of Disney animation, I must say that the news about Moana 2 has left me absolutely thrilled! Having grown up with the original Moana, watching it on repeat and singing along to its captivating soundtrack, hearing that this beloved story is getting a sequel is like finding a hidden treasure in an epic adventure game.
Recently, the directors of Moana 2 – Dana Ledoux Miller, Jason Hand, and David Derrick Jr. – discussed their plans to transform the upcoming sequel from a simple storyline into a full-fledged motion picture.
At Disney’s Investor Day in 2020, I was thrilled to learn about the upcoming series based on Moana, slated for streaming on Disney+ as a sequel to the sensational 2016 film. Excitingly, earlier this year, Disney revealed that this series would actually be transformed into an animated feature film for the big screen! Even better, Auli’i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson have confirmed their return to voice Moana and Maui respectively in this new cinematic adventure.
What did the Moana 2 directors say about the change?
In an interview, Miller expressed his gratitude for the shift from a television series to a film, stating, “This transformation enabled us to go grander.” With 750 talented artists at our disposal, we can showcase their brilliance more dramatically on the big screen than is possible when viewing it on a TV.
When queried regarding the most extraordinary incident during the production of the forthcoming animated sequel, all three directors agreed that transforming the project from a series into a film was undeniably the most remarkable event.
“It doesn’t get much bigger than that,” said Miller.
Derrick added, “Yeah, that was crazy.”
Miller playfully hinted at what audiences might anticipate in Moana 2 and what distinguishes it from the original movie: “In contrast to the first film where Moana was finding her roots, Moana 2 focuses on Moana creating a fresh future for her tribe.
Three years after the events depicted in the initial movie, Moana receives an unforeseen call from her guiding ancestors. With this, she assembles her own team and reconnects with her friend, the demigod Maui. Their voyage takes them across the vast oceans of Oceania, where they aim to lift a curse on the secluded island of Motufetu, a place that once united oceanic peoples. Along their journey, they encounter both familiar and new adversaries, such as the Kakamora and the underworld deity Matangi.
Disney’s Moana 2 releases in theaters on November 27, 2024.
