It’s Maui Time!
I have to admit, I am so over the top – really, really, really excited for Moana! The newest clip being seen during the Olympics gives us a good look at Maui, the once-mighty demigod (Dwayne Johnson) and Moana, a spirited teenager (Auli’i Cravalho). Moana will have the two embark on an epic adventure across the ocean and we will get to see some amazing girl power and determination as Moana finds herself along the way to discovering the ancient quest of her ancestors. I also think the music from this film is going to be a huge hit!
If you have been watching the Olympics you have most likely seen this clip – if you haven’t – here it is!

Three thousand years ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast Pacific, discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a millennium, their voyages stopped – and no one knows why. From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes “Moana,” a sweeping, CG-animated feature film about an adventurous teenager who sails out on a daring mission to save her people. During her journey, Moana (voice of Auliʻi Cravalho) meets the mighty demigod Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson), who guides her in her quest to become a master wayfinder. Together, they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds, and along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she’s always sought: her own identity. Directed by the renowned filmmaking team of Ron Clements and John Musker (“The Little Mermaid,” “Aladdin,” “The Princess & the Frog”) and produced by Osnat Shurer (“Lifted,” “One Man Band”).
Moana sails into U.S. theaters on Nov. 23, 2016
