Moana: Live Action (2025)

The enchanting world of Moana is coming to life like never before in the highly anticipated Moana: Live Action (2025). Building on the success of the original animated film, this live-action adaptation promises to bring even more magic, heart, and adventure to the screen, with a new level of depth and realism that will captivate both old and new fans.

Set in the vibrant, oceanic world of the Pacific Islands, the live-action Moana follows the brave and determined Moana Waialiki (played by a yet-to-be-announced actress) as she embarks on an epic journey to save her people and discover her true destiny. The story remains faithful to the original, with Moana seeking the demigod Maui (played by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) in an effort to restore the heart of Te Fiti and bring balance to her island.
The live-action film will bring a fresh visual style to the breathtaking landscapes of the Pacific, with sweeping aerial shots of crystal-clear waters, lush jungles, and towering volcanoes. The magic of the ocean, the creatures Moana encounters, and the rich cultural elements of Polynesian mythology will be brought to life with cutting-edge CGI, practical effects, and stunning visual artistry. The ocean itself, a key character in the story, will take on a more tangible and mystical form, adding layers of wonder to the film.
Dwayne Johnson returns as the lovable and sarcastic demigod Maui, bringing his trademark charm and humor to the role. With his powerful presence and vocal talent, he will once again lend his voice to one of Disney’s most iconic characters, while also performing some of the film’s action-heavy scenes. Additionally, the unforgettable songs from the original Moana movie, including “How Far I’ll Go” and “You’re Welcome,” will be reimagined with live-action performances, creating a dynamic musical experience for audiences.
