Disney & Dwayne Johnson have a live-action Moana adaptation in the works!
The actor otherwise known as The Rock shared the thrilling news in a video filmed on the island of Oahu. While his two daughters played in the sand, Johnson revealed he plans to bring Maui — the charismatic demigod he originally voiced in the 2016 modern classic — to life by returning to the role for the new live-action version.
“This story is my culture, and this story is emblematic of our people’s grace and warrior strength,” he said in a separate statement. “I wear this culture proudly on my skin and in my soul, and this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reunite with Maui, inspired by the mana and spirit of my late grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia, is one that runs very deep for me.
