Disney brings the majestic islands of Oceania to life in this visually stunning live-action reimagining of Moana (2026). The story follows Moana, the strong-willed daughter of a Polynesian village chief, who is chosen by the ocean itself to reunite a mystical relic with the goddess Te Fiti. When a terrible blight strikes her island, threatening her people's survival, Moana disobeys her father and sets sail in search of Maui, a legendary, larger-than-life shape-shifting demigod.
Together, they voyage across the treacherous open ocean on an action-packed quest, encountering enormous sea monsters, mystical realms, and impossible odds. Along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient, dormant quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she’s always sought: her own true identity as a wayfinder. This live-action adaptation promises to honor the spirit, music, and rich cultural heritage of the original 2016 film while bringing breathtaking realism and new depth to its beloved characters.
