"Disney Unveils First Teaser for 'Moana 2'"

Walt Disney Animation Studios has released the first teaser trailer for Moana 2, set to hit U.S. theaters on November 27, 2024. Initially planned as a streaming series, the project was upgraded to a full-length feature due to its impressive development and the original film's strong streaming performance. Directed by David Derrick Jr., Jason Hand, and Dana Ledoux Miller, the sequel reunites Moana and Maui for a new adventure three years after the original. Production is split between Disney's Vancouver and Burbank studios, potentially signaling a shift in Disney's production model.
