Moana and Maui are sailing back to the big screen, very quickly.
Moana 2 is coming to theatres in November, Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger said today.
Originally planned as a television series, the movie finds Moana on a dangerous mission to the far seas of Oceania after getting a call from her ancestors.
It is, the company said, "“an adventure unlike anything she’s ever faced".
“Moana remains an incredibly popular franchise and we can’t wait to give you more of Moana and Maui,” Iger said in a statement.
The company said the film will open in theatres on November 27.
Moana 2 was directed by Dave Derrick Jr. and will feature music by Grammy winners Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, Mark Mancina, and Grammy nominee Opetaia Foa’i. No details were given about the voice actors.
The first film made over NZ$1.1 billion at the global box office and has been streamed for over 1 billion hours on Disney+. Dwayne Johnson is also at work on a live-action Moana for the company.
Other titles in the production line from Disney include Captain America: Brave New World, Fantastic Four, and Avatar 3.
