Dwayne Johnson made a surprise by announcing he was returning to play Maui. However, this role was not made for the continuation of the film Moana, but for live action films that will be produced by Disney Studios.
This news was first announced by Disney at the annual Shareholders Webcast event on Monday, April 3 yesterday. A video shows Johnson with his two children: Tia and Jasmine on a beach on Oahu.
In the tape, Johnson said, "We are very enthusiastic and happy to announce that Moana's live action is being worked on."
'Moana, grandmother, Tala, music, dance, Te Fiti, Pua the pig, village, beauty, powerful sea and one more... what is that? Oh.. belongs to you guys.. Heyhei the chicken! Joking. Heyhei will join and of course Maui too," he continued.
Dwayne Johnson fills Maui's voice in collaboration with the main character, Moana (charged by AuliI Cravalho) on a trip to save the world.
"Many of you don't know the brilliant team at Disney Animation, parents, we found a lot of inspiration for Maui and respected my late grandfather, Peter Maivia. When I brought Maui back to life, I did it for my grandfather," Johnson said.
It is not yet known whether only Dwayne Johnson and Auli I Cravalho will be the voice actors who will star in the live action version. On the other hand, this news reaps the pros and cons of the public who feel this version is unnecessary.
"Why not make a sequel to animation with the same players compared to live action?" wrote one netizen.
This video exudes happiness. I love our Maui. Can't wait for this! " wrote another.
The film hasn't even been released in a decade. The original film is only six years old, right? " wrote the netizen.
Moana's original film reached box office when it was released in 2016. The film earned $645 million for global broadcast.
