Disney Casts Live Action Moana
It has just been announced that Disney has found the actress to play the live-action version of Moana opposite Dwayne Johnson’s Maui.
17-year-old Catherine Laga’aia will play Moana. She hails from Sydney, Australia, and she is excited to play a character representative of your Pacific Island heritage.
Here’s what she said,
“I’m really excited to embrace this character because Moana is one of my favorites. My grandfather comes from Fa‘aala, Palauli, in Savai‘i. And my grandmother is from Leulumoega Tuai on the main island of ‘Upolu in Samoa. I’m honored to have an opportunity to celebrate Samoa and all Pacific Island peoples, and to represent young girls who look like me.”
The live-action film is set to start this summer. It will be directed by Thomas Kail based on a screenplay by Jared Bush and Dana Ledoux Miller. Bush wrote the original “Moana” as well.
