Dwayne Johnson Gives a Behind-the-Scenes Look at Recording For ‘Moana 2’
Perhaps the biggest news to come out of The Walt Disney Compay’s Q1 Earnings Call earlier this year was the exciting revelation that Moana 2 will sail into theaters this year.
The long-awaited sequel to 2016’s Moana will see the return of the titular heroine alongside Maui, Hei Hei, Pua, and the rest of the original film’s cast for another musical adventure.

“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.”
