If you are curious about the Moana 2 release date, you have come to the right place. Directed by John Musker and Ron Clements and co-directed by Chris Williams and Don Hall, Moana is a 2016 animated musical fantasy action-adventure film developed by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It is the first Disney movie with a Polynesian character as the protagonist, effectively making Moana a Disney princess.
Here’s all the Moana 2 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a Moana 2 release date?
Moana 2 does not have an official release date, but it will likely be announced in the future.
As of early October 2023, Disney has not officially announced the development of Moana 2. In the past decade or so, the studio has progressively veered away from making sequels and instead focused on developing live-action remakes. Although exceptions such as the Frozen and Toy Story films do exist, they don’t seem to be part of the norm. In fact, a live-action remake of Moana, in which Johnson will reprise his role as Maui, is slated to come out on June 27, 2025. Moreover, one of the several animated TV spin-offs developed by Walt Disney Animation Studios was set to come out on Disney Plus in 2023 but has been delayed until 2024.
However, this doesn’t mean that the prospect of a Moana sequel can be entirely ruled out. As Disney expands the universe with the projects mentioned above, there will always be room for cinematic animation and how it can used to continue exploring Moana’s story.
The possible voice cast for Moana 2 is Auliʻi Cravalho as Moana, Dwayne Johnson as Maui, Rachel House as Tala, Temuera Morrison as Tui, Jemaine Clement as Tamatoa, Alan Tudyk as Heihei, and more.
Where is Moana 2 coming out?
Moana isn’t confirmed to release in theaters. ComingSoon will provide an update if and when Moana 2 officially goes into development.
The official synopsis for Moana reads:
“In Ancient Polynesia, when a terrible curse incurred by Maui reaches an impetuous Chieftain’s daughter’s island, she answers the Ocean’s call to seek out the demigod to set things right.”
