She’s a girl who loves her island, she’s a girl who loves the sea, and she’s back in “Moana 2,” eight years after the original film hit theaters.

This time, Moana (Auli’i Cravalho) is a little older and… lot more experienced, and is once again on a mission to save her people. With the help of her old friend Maui (Dwayne Johnson), plus an all-new crew, Motonui’s greatest wayfinder must answer a call from her ancestors in the sequel.

Here’s everything you need to know about Disney’s latest.

When will “Moana 2” be released?

“Moana 2” arrives just in time for families looking for a Thanksgiving watch, releasing on Wednesday, November 27.

Is it streaming?

Not yet. For now, you can only see ‘Moana 2’ in theaters. But when it comes time to stream, the film will be released on Disney+. We’ll keep you posted on exactly when that is, but if it follows the trajectory of previous Disney releases, it won’t be streaming for at least 45 days. Look for it on Disney+ sometime in early 2025, possibly in February.

What is ‘Moana 2’ about?

“Moana 2” picks up three years after the first film, with Moana living her best wayfinder life. She now has a younger sister, and her village idolizes her for what she has done for her people.

When she receives a call from the ancestors to break an ancient curse and find a mysterious island, she must venture further into the ocean than ever before or risk the extinction of her people.

Will the original cast return?

Yes they do! Auli’i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson return to voice Moana and Maui, respectively, and Temuera Morrison, Nicole Scherzinger and Rachel House are all back to voice Moana’s family.

But “Moana 2” also welcomes new characters, and therefore new voice actors. They include Rose Matafeo, Khaleesi Lambert-Tsuda, Hualalai Chung and Awhimai Fraser and are among the newcomers to the cast.

Did Lin-Manuel Miranda redo the music?

He didn’t. This time, Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear – known professionally as Barlow & Bear – wrote the songs for the film. The songs are all new, but certainly contain nods to the music from the first film.

That said, both Opetaia Foa’i and Mark Mancina return as composers and songwriters, having worked with Lin-Manuel Miranda on the first “Moana.”
