and Moana 2 Arriving at 4K and Blu-ray on March 18 and hit Disney+ on March 12, the filmmaker behind the epic sequel sat down to confirm the new champion of our favorite Voyager.
IO9 spent a day at Walt Disney Animation Studio Moana 2participated in a walkthrough of special features that will be included in the family release of popular drama sequels. From VFX's work to director, let's finish the storyboard of the final scene of the film, we have to learn more about what the film sets for the future of Moana (Auli'i cravalho) and the work it takes to change from the Disney+ series to a fully dramatic feature.
Director David G.
Hand explained: “The next chapter of Moana's story, ultimately [what] We're planning [for the] The series is the story we tell [the] feature. However, we can only speak it on the big screen in the biggest and most effective way. ”
Even Moana What fans are hoping for now, and because of the success of the movie may be in the card. Derrick already has some story ideas shared: “When we start the story for this, we know there are more stories to tell. So it's obvious that if we want to do more, if the audience's desire is there, we want to be able to keep the door open.”
The speech included seeing how Moana's sacrifices were put together hard, creating an important moment that really paid off when the ancestors let her come back in a big way. In our interview, we asked if this was to inspire more adventures with Moana and Maui on a more equal plane. “We built this on purpose,” Derek said. “But we really wanted to tell a story that itself still feels complete and it feels like we've seen the journey. We've seen Moana [and] Changes in Maui [the film]so this is both. ”
Hand emphasized this Moana 2 It was originally a new, complete heroine of the story. “Ultimately, our theme is that you never stop choosing who you are and discovering who you are. So it feels very suitable, too. [for] The second movie ends on this open question. We know she has become a demigod. But, what exactly does this mean? ”
Moana is a path-seeking person, and it makes us happy to see her using her magical oar to unite more people. While the filmmakers are quiet around the third movie, we still want to see Moana in her demi-god glory in the theme park and ask if they have consulted on future attractive plans based on the event Moana 2.
“We're just trying to finish the movie and bring the movie to its location, the fact that the fact that we're going to crave in the park is incredible,” Derrick shared. “We did see the characters on the walk, which was really exciting for us.”
The hand interrupted and said, “Oh my god! She is going to walk around the park.” [in] flesh and blood. That was really exciting. So anything else would be incredible. ”

Another game-changing revelation Moana 2 Appearing in the post-credit scene, the recently defeated Storm Naro (Tofiga Fepulea'i) summons a meeting with the angry gods of Moana and Maui’s heroic ambitions. The Bat goddess Matangi (Awhimai Fraser) is now free to appear, but still answers Nalo in some way, and we will be shocked when Tamatoa makes his existence known.
The “Shining” Crab God of the fans of the first movie is back, again voiced by Jemaine Clement, the bad guy team is interested in what it means. Clement's cameo has been Moana 2The plan, but as the story changes, it changes.
“We've been planning a guest appearance for Jemaine in the story. You know, there was one time [it] It's the beginning. “In the end, we always wanted to meet Naro and really see the face of this opponent. Yes, it all blends together, but it's something we've been playing for a long time.”
Derrick explains why they decided to keep the villain teasing after the film's conclusion is over. “At some point, we ended before the end, and then we were like, ‘Oh no, let’s end the incredibly highly understandable Moana’s achievement. She’s going to this new journey, [and] Let some credits roll. ”
“Yes, then set it as the stage. Let's see these characters and laugh a little.” Hand added, pointing out that it was perfect to eventually bring back Tamatoya for added texture. “But the version of Tamatoa Jemaine is so funny. It's like, “Yes, she knows basically screwing us up” to sympathize with Nalo. It's so funny.”
Moana 2 It will set on Disney+ on March 12; you can also buy it on March 18 at 4K or Blu-ray.
