Oceania 2, Walt Disney Animation Studios Opzioni

[veu]

non crediamo fosse la storia di una ragazza che solcava i mari per salvare l'innamorato... anche perchè era troppo demodé una storia simile...
la storia d'amore c'era ma era costruita tra i due personaggi, un po' sulla scia di Tiana/Naveen e Rapunzel/Flynn.
più che altro il progetto era tutto diverso, basato sugli Dei delle Hawaii... e c'era il Tiki (la figura mitologica polinesiana)

poi tutto venne completamente cambiato e la storia è diventata quella che conosciamo con i mari ecc

Sempre quello sguardo di sfida insopportabile che ci trasciniamo da Rapunzel. Mamma che fastidio.

From ‘Deadpool’ to ‘Mufasa’: The Walt Disney Studios Rolls Out Its Robust Slate of New Releases

A new kingdom. Some new feelings. The return of an Oscar®-winning duo. A swearing Super Hero and his clawed companion. Silent screams in space. The return to Motunui. And the origins of a lionized king.

That’s just some of what moviegoers can expect as The Walt Disney Studios rolled out its 2024 theatrical film slate at CinemaCon in Las Vegas on Thursday.

The 2024 releases represent an eclectic group of films from across Disney’s blockbuster brands with franchise films from Marvel Studios, Walt Disney Animation, 20th Century Studios, Pixar, and more. It’s also an example of the company’s ongoing effort to deliver creativity and excellence from its film studios.

“The upcoming lineup from our studio is incredibly exciting,” Alan Bergman, Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman, said. “With a mix of established franchises and fresh stories, there’s something for everyone and we look forward to serving up a variety of films that deliver a steady flow of exceptional cinematic events to theaters.”

This year’s slate follows a 2023 that saw Disney bring in nearly $5 billion at the global box office. That includes $1.9 billion domestically across 17 titles. Acclaim also followed financial success last year as Disney led the industry with 20 Oscar® nominations, including five wins.

Now, 2024 is shaping up to be a great year. Here’s some of what Disney is bringing to a theater near you this year:

Moana 2

November 27

The ocean is calling and so is the return of one of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ most adored films.

Moana 2 brings audiences back to Motunui as Moana, Maui, and a brand-new crew of unlikely seafarers journey to the far seas and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she’s ever faced. The all-new epic animated musical will feature the returning voices of Auli‘i Cravalho as Moana and Dwayne Johnson as Maui.

Since 2016’s Moana — a smash hit that made $645 million worldwide — love for the high seas adventures of Moana and Maui has not wavered. The original film recently crossed 1 billion hours streamed on Disney+ and was the most streamed movie of 2023 on any platform in the U.S.

Dwayne Johnson Surprises CinemaCon With Sneak Peek of ‘Moana 2’

The David Derrick Jr.-directed film, originally developed as a TV series for Disney+, is scheduled to hit theaters on Nov. 27.

Two months after Disney CEO Bob Iger‘s surprise announcement that Moana 2 was in the works at the studio and scheduled to hit theaters Nov. 27, the animated sequel took center stage at CinemaCon.

Disney debuted an exclusive sneak peek of footage of the David Derrick Jr.-directed film in front of theater owners with the help of its superstar voice talent, Dwayne Johnson. He arrived to the stage after a mini-performance from Polynesian dancers. Johnson is back for the new installment alongside actors from the original, including Auli’i Cravalho and others.

“As we say on the island, aloha,” Johnson said, dressed for the occasion in trousers and a white tank top. “Playing the character of Maui is one of the most life-changing life experiences for me and life changing roles.”

He added that the character is more meaningful to him than just a gig. “It’s my culture, you guys can see I wear it on my chest, my body, my tattoo, and also the character of Maui was inspired from my grandfather, the high chief, Peter Maivia,” he said. “It’s so much deeper than a movie to me and I know it’s deeper for Disney, too.”

Per Disney, the story picks up after Moana receives an unexpected call from her wayfinding ancestors, so she sets off on a journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she has ever faced. The footage featured new music — Cravalho, the voice of the title charater was heard singing a new song about being “back to who we’re meant to be” — and stunning visuals in the same vein as the original.

Johnson promised “an all new crew, all new setting and, of course, new songs — you’re welcome,” he said, telling theater owners it’s going to be the perfect escape this winter.

Derrick’s film was initially developed as a TV series, Iger confirmed on the earnings call in February. “The original Moana film from 2016 recently crossed 1 billion hours streamed on Disney+, and was the most streamed movie of 2023 on any platform in the U.S. Along with the live-action version of the original film that’s currently in development, Moana remains an incredibly popular franchise, and we can’t wait to give you more of Moana and Maui when Moana 2 comes to theaters this November,” Iger said at the time, underscoring the film’s continued cultural cachet.

That 2016 film, also released in November of that year, was directed by Ron Clements and John Musker. It went on to gross more than $248 million at the domestic box office for an international haul of north of $643 million. It also received two Academy Award nominations, one for best animated feature and another for best original song, for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s “How Far I’ll Go” sung by Cravalho.

Moana 2 is not to be confused with the other Moana project in the works at Disney, a live-action film set to star Johnson. The studio confirmed last week that Thomas Kail’s live-action offering was being pushed back from June 27, 2025 to a new release date of July 10, 2026. The move gives the remake breathing room from the animated Moana 2, which opens this November.

Also as part of the Moana segment, NATO chair Bob Bagby surprised Johnson by presenting him with NATO’s spirit of the industry award, the second trophy of its kind following last year’s, which was presented to Christopher Nolan. “This award honors your unequal passion and commitment to the theatrical experience,” Bagby said. In accepting, Johnson said, “I gotta tell you that, with all the changes, ebbs and flows and growth and progress, the one thing that will always remain is the theater experience.”

Ulteriori informazioni sul film dal Cinemacon:

Hanno mostrato una canzone e la scena di Vaiana che vince il padre ad una gara (la gara apparentemente fa parte della canzone)


Ecco qua:


Da X di Variety:

"In the music-heavy clip, Moana returns to her home island of Montunui and is greeted with a hero’s welcome. The clip offered a taste of one new song that’s about the natives eager to be 'back to who we’re meant to be.' Although the sequel will feature entirely fresh melodies, the music sounds like it harkens back to the original film as the islanders hum: 'The village believes in her, the village believes…' At one point, a character asks: 'Do we have to sing?' Everyone promptly responds: 'Yes, we have to sing.'"


Da X di THR:

Moana is seen on her boat, returning to Motunui. She sings a song, the lyrics go "Finally we're back to who we're meant to be." The villagers sing along with her. One villager sings a synopsis of Moana's story from the original film.

Moana races her dad in a boat race. She wins and lands on the beach of her home island as the song concludes



Dal sito DeadLine:

The sequence shown was Moana singing “We’re finally back to where we’re supposed to be.” She’s revered by her friends and relatives for being friends with Maui. The song felt like an opening number.


Dal sito The Wrap:

The preview shows Moana, played by Auli’i Cravalho, taking off to the seas once again and singing a brand new opening number called “We’re Back,” celebrating Motunui’s return to their heritage as explorers of the Pacific. Moana is now a living legend, with the villagers telling the kids of the tribe about how she met Maui in the first film.


Dal sito Collider:

In it, a new catchy song can be heard as Moana (Cravalho) charts her destiny aboard her boat. Of course, she’s accompanied by her pig, Pua, and brainless rooster, Hei Hei. With the stars as their guide, Moana maps out her course back home to her beloved family and island. The song tells us that the animated feature’s titular character has become sort of a local legend as an expert navigator and bestie to the demi-God, Maui (Johnson). As she gets closer to shore, Moana runs into her father who meets her on the open ocean and challenges her to a race. Of course, she absolutely smokes him and is greeted by her friends and loved ones on the sands of her home island.



Dal sito / Film:

The CinemaCon 2024 "Moana 2" footage opens with Moana doing her thing on her boat, riding the waves with her pig pal Pua and having a great time. She says "we're back" before singing a new song about returning to her island. These characters are returning to tell their story — and don't worry, Hei Hei the rooster is back, too. As she sings, there are dolphins in the sea jumping in the water and loving her tune. The action transitions to the island, and more people take over the song, which provides something of a recap of the first film. But now Moana and her people are building and expanding. The song is very classic Disney exposition in a sort of delightful way. Moana reunites with her dad on the island, and it's very sweet. A rapid-fire teaser closed things out, showcasing Moana in a strange cave, beating on a drum and it echoing back. There's a storm, and a voiceover says, "I don't know where your path will lead, but we never stop choosing who we are" as Moana looks upon a mysterious island. And of course, Dwayne Johnson's Maui shows up at the very end to ... slice off the tops of some very tall rocks with his magical hook weapon.



Dal sito Laughing Place:

Moana sails the seas with her pet pig Pua and unintentional pet chicken Hei Hei keeping her company. The sequence felt like the opening of the film, with Moana singing about sailing home to Motunui. The song transfers to the island, where Moana’s parents and villagers await her return. New, unnamed characters are introduced, including a young woman who seems inspired by Moana’s sailing spirit, and a man who loves teaching kids about their princess and her adventures with Maui. As Moana gets closer, her dad is so excited to see her that he overcomes his fears and sails past the reef to meet her. In a sizzle of additional clips, we saw Maona back in the alcove hidden behind the waterfall where she found the ships in the first film. She uses a torch to examine a stone carving in the rock wall, which depicts a human on a boat. She bangs the drum Gramma Tala told her to hit in the first film, and hears a drumming back, but it ends up being Hei Hei. We see Moana sailing off on another adventure, and a brief shot of kakamora. And in a voice-over, we hear Gramma Tala’s spirit saying “I don’t know where your path will lead, but we never stop choosing who we are.”

Rumor da Dvdizzy (utente friendoftheotherside ):

So I’ve learned some new information about Moana 2 and I want to correct something. Yes, Moana will have a sister in the sequel, but she’s not the kid from the first look picture. She is a toddler and her name is actually Simea.

Also the movie will have a villain, who is inspired by a Polynesian goddess. And she has a connection to bats.


Traduzione:

* Vaiana avrà una sorella che non è la ragazza ritratta nelle foto del primo concept art rilasciato (questo: Click), ma una bambina di nome Simea.

* Ci sarà anche una cattiva nel film, ispirata ad una Dea Polinesiana che ha una connessione con i pipistrelli

Opinione: che la cattiva sia ispirata alla Dea polinesiana Leutogi? Leutogi è una principessa samoana poi diventata la dea polinesiana dei pipistrelli

[Hiroe]

Eh, potrebbe essere! Visto che con questi film si propongono di esplorare la cultura polinesiana, potrebbe essere come dite voi, veu. Ho rivisto con Leo di recente il primo film, e le atmosfere del mondo dei mostri sono sempre accattivanti, spero tornino anche lì!
