Plot overview: Moana's new adventure

The plot picks up three years after the events of the previous film when our hero reunites with the demigod Maui and forms a wayfinding team to locate the cursed island of Motufetu, remove its spell, and reunite the oceanic people. Moana (Cravalho) and Maui (Johnson) come back together in Moana 2 for an epic new adventure with an unexpected cast of characters. An unexpected summons from her navigational ancestors forces Moana to embark on an extraordinary adventure unlike any she has ever experienced, as she must navigate the treacherous, long-lost waters of Oceania.

The ocean chooses Auliʻi Cravalho to break the curse on the island of Motufetu through her character Moana, who is the inquisitive daughter of village head Tui and his wife Sina. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson portrays Maui, a demigod capable of shape-shifting and traveling alongside her.

Sequel's development: From miniseries to feature film

From its original development as a Disney+ miniseries, the Moana sequel evolved into a theatrical sequel. Composers and co-songwriters of the original film, Mark Mancina and Opetaia Foaʛi, were back for the sequel to create and write the songs, with Lin-Manuel Miranda being replaced as an additional songwriter by Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear.

It surpassed its predecessor and became the third highest-grossing film of 2024, earning $1.027 billion globally. Critics gave it mixed reviews, but overall, it was a successful box office hit, and it ranked fifty-first all-time. Among its 82nd Golden Globe Award nominations was Best Animated Feature Film.

Dwayne Johnson's involvement and expectations for the sequel

Earlier, Johnson said, confirming that he had been engaged with the project from the beginning, including its development, and that he was eager for audiences to witness the film, the technology, the effects, and the cutting edge. Every one of them really dove in. Since this is a sequel to a much-loved original, they figured, "Why not go all out?"

Moana 2 will have its full-fledged OTT release on Disney+ Hotstar later this year.
