The official ‘Moana 2’ trailer just dropped, and she’s heading back to the sea with a crew of both new and old faces.
Set three years after the original, Moana (voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho) returns home to meet her younger sister Simea (Khaleesi Lambert-Tsuda), an adorable mini-me version of herself.
While home, Moana learns of an ancient island cursed by the "power-hungry" Goddess Matangi (Awhimai Fraser). Moana’s next mission? Step onto the sands of the island to reverse the curse and bring her people together again.
“I know what I have to do,” Moana says, ready to set sail with her crew.
According to the film's synopsis: “Moana must journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she's ever faced.”
This time, her entire village and family are behind her, sending her off with big waves of support. Simea even gives her a special keepsake as a reminder of home on her dangerous journey.
Joining her are new faces, Moni (Hualālai Chung), Kele (David Fane), and Loto (Rose Matafeo). Along the way, Moana reconnects with Maui (Dwayne Johnson), who’s got plenty of 'cheehoos' to keep the energy high.
But it won’t be smooth sailing. The crew faces rough seas, wild monsters, and angry Gods as they discover their strength and calling.
“This is bigger than the ancestors, bigger than us,” Moana says. “The entire ocean is counting on us.”
Looks like we’re in for an epic adventure when the film hits cinemas on November 28.
