Moana Live-Action Trailer Reimagining: Official Trailer Surfaces on YouTube Just Four Months After Disney’s Exciting Announcement by CEO Bob Iger and Hollywood Star Dwayne Johnson!
Moana Live-Action Trailer Blows up Online
The official cast, including Dwayne Johnson’s portrayal of Maui, has not been announced, though it is anticipated that he will reprise his role as the demigod. Earlier this year, Auli’i Cravalho, who played Moana, revealed on Instagram that she would not star in the live-action remake but would serve as an executive producer.
Consequently, the opportunity arises for a new actress to embody the character of Moana, and an exciting new trailer has emerged online, featuring the renowned actress Zendaya in the titular role, alongside Dwayne Johnson as the demigod Maui.
Moana Live-Action Trailer left fans puzzled on Saturday as its first look allegedly went viral. Just four months after Disney’s Chief Executive Officer, Bob Iger, and Hollywood star Dwayne Johnson made the official announcement about the live-action reimagining of the beloved story of Moana and Maui, the MOANA Live Action trailer surfaced on YouTube.
Excitingly, the alleged MOANA Live-Action trailer featured the renowned Hollywood actress Zendaya, who, according to the viral video, will be portraying the character of Maui. However, the release of Moana’s live trailer caused significant confusion as it wasn’t officially shared by the makers.
The fact that it surfaced four months after its initial announcement left fans puzzled, with many questioning whether the MOANA Live-Action trailer was genuine, leaked online, or simply a fan creation. Nonetheless, a multitude of fans expressed their elation, affirming that they loved the video regardless of its authenticity.
This trailer has taken the internet by storm, spreading rapidly across various social media platforms. Surpassing 100,000 views on YouTube and gaining tens of thousands of likes and views on TikTok, the trailer’s popularity is undeniable.
Fans can’t help but either believe it’s a real teaser or express their desire to see Zendaya, known for her roles as MJ in the Spider-Man franchise and Rue in HBO’s Euphoria, take on the role of Moana. However, it’s unlikely to happen. Cravahlo, the original voice of Moana, made it clear that casting for the live-action adaptation should accurately represent the characters and their stories.
She expressed her honor in passing the baton to the next young woman of Pacific Island descent who will carry on Moana’s legacy, celebrating the rich cultures and communities that inspire her story. Fans can look forward to the beautiful Pacific representation that lies ahead.
