"Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson sports a budget curly wig backlit by a harsh sun as he introduces himself to the Polynesian heroine as the 'Hero of men ... ah, and women, too.'"
"Moana is tasked with saving her island by finding demigod Maui and returning the heart to Te Fiti, closely following its animated Oscar-winning counterpart."
"Nothing in this trailer looks like it'll deviate from the animated Moana, but surely it will still make so much money."
The first official trailer for Disney's live-action remake of Moana features Dwayne Johnson as Maui, who introduces himself to Moana. The trailer closely mirrors the animated version, showcasing Moana's quest to save her island by finding Maui and returning the heart to Te Fiti. Key characters such as Moana's animal sidekicks Pua and HeiHei, the crab Tamatoa, and the coconut pirates Kakamora are also highlighted. Despite concerns about representation, the film is expected to perform well at the box office.
