Oceania, Disney animated film of 2016 will become a live-action with the production that in this period has announced who will be the protagonist Maui, or Dwayne Johnson. Disney announced the news of the live-action film with a video of Dwayne Johnson on the beaches of Hawaii which also confirmed the presence of him as the male lead. The film, which in the official title in the United States is called Moana was a top grosser at the time with a whopping $644 million worldwidethanks also to the unusual plot and setting for a Disney film.
Oceania: Thomas Kail will be the director of the live-action
The female protagonist, Vaiana still does not have an interpreter, but in these days the confirmation of who will take care of the direction has arrived: will be Thomas Kail known in the Broadway musical world for directing Hamilton one of the best known and most successful musicals. Precisely the direction of this musical made him win a Tony Award which are the American Oscars for the world of musicals and theater. An interesting choice that will therefore give the film a strong musical and choreographic connotation given the style of the musicals the director has worked on.
Another cast news it is the absence of Auli’i Cravalho who was the narrator in the animated film, but who will still be in the production team as executive producer. We just have to wait for the choice of the protagonist which certainly makes us very curious, especially to see her next to Dwayne Johnson who is now a veteran of Disney adventure films. It will also be very interesting to see it in a musical formula, with music and perhaps choreography!
