It was recently announced that Disney is working on Moana 2, and though this is exciting news for the beloved animated movie, one aspect of Moana 2’s production spells out potential trouble for another Disney project: the Moana live-action remake.
Although the original Moana came out all the way back in 2016, Disney is only now taking on the film’s sequel and its live-action remake. Notably, Disney has been slowly working through its animated movie catalog and rebooting each film into a live-action adaptation. Apparently, Moana is next up on the list, coincidentally alongside the animated sequel.
