The new Moana 2 will be released on 29 November 2024. Disney says it's set to be an 'expansive new voyage with Moana, Maui and a brand-new crew of unlikely seafarers'.

Who is in the Moana 2

We’re thrilled that so many of our favourites are back for the Moana sequel! Auli’i Cravalho is returning as the voice of Moana, and of course, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will be back as the lovable demigod Maui.

We’re also excited to see Temuera Morrison reprise his role as Chief Tui (Moana’s dad), Nicole Scherzinger as Sina (Moana’s mum), Jemaine Clement as the hilarious Tamatoa, and Alan Tudyk as Hei Hei, the clueless but lovable rooster. It's shaping up to be quite the reunion.
