Moana fans are all asking the same question after live-action trailer drops
Moana fans complain about key element of live-action trailer
- Disney has released the first trailer for its live-action remake of Moana, which has left fans divided.
- Many viewers are questioning the necessity of the remake, as the original animated film was released less than a decade ago and the animated sequel, Moana 2, premiered in 2024.
- Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson reprises his role as demigod Maui, with Catherine Laga'aia cast as the titular character.
- Critics highlight that much of the trailer's footage is CGI, making it visually similar to the animated version and prompting questions about the remake's purpose.
- Despite fan complaints and the tight turnaround, Disney's live-action adaptations have historically proven to be extremely lucrative.
