Article Summary

  • Disney releases seven stunning images from Moana 2, set for a November 27, 2024, release.
  • Moana 2, originally a TV show, recut into a thrilling feature-length film.
  • The film explores Moana's new seafaring adventure with a larger cast and exquisite animation.
  • The success depends on captivating music and narrative; can it replicate Frozen's charm?

Transformers One is out this weekend, and between that and Inside Out 2, it is becoming increasingly apparent that it will be an excellent year for animation fans. The Wild Robot comes out next week, but Disney is also dropping a new film on the Thanksgiving weekend. Moana 2 existence is not surprising at all; the first film is still up there with the most streamed movies on Disney+, but the origin of this movie is interesting. It was initially a television show that has been recut into a feature-length film. So you have to wonder what kind of pacing and structure this film will have. We also have a much bigger cast this time, and in the new images released, we see them all, so we only have so much time to get attached to them. In a television show, we'd have six to eight hours. In an animated Disney film, we probably have less than two. The film looks beautiful, though, and Disney wants this lightning to strike again, so this one will probably do well, regardless of what critics say. However, whether or not it becomes a pop culture sensation will hinge on the music and the movie itself. Even Frozen couldn't really make another Let It Go happen twice.
