According to Disney, “Moana 2 will take audiences on an ‘expansive new voyage with Moana, Maui and a brand-new crew of unlikely seafarers’. 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.”
It will be directed by Dave Derrick Jr with music from the duo of Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, as well as Opetaia Foa’i and Mark Mancina.
Moana has been a successful venture for Disney. It has generated more than $680 million at the box office.
Disney hasn’t had a successful series of films in the recent past, with 2023 being especially tough for the studio, from Disney Animation’s Wish to The Marvels, Haunted Mansion and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
