Short description
Teenage Moana answers the Ocean's call and, for the first time, voyages beyond the reef of her island of Motunui with infamous demigod Maui on an unforgettable journey to restore prosperity to her people.
What's left behind the scenes
- No hammers, nails, or other types of modern construction equipment were used when building the necessary props (such as huts or canoes). Instead, planks were lashed together using the traditional method—with coconut palm fibers.
- About 150 variations of the ancient jade stone 'Heart of Te Fiti' were crafted from fluorite for the shoot. They were made in various shades of green to ensure they blended seamlessly with the color palette of specific scenes.
- Moana was voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho in the animated films. She declined the offer to star in the live-action movie to make way for other voice actors.
- Over 20 'magic' fishing hooks were created for filming, including a heavy-duty hook capable of supporting Dwayne Johnson's weight, a lightweight version for stunt scenes, and a cracked version with internal illumination.
- Many copies of Moana's paddle were made for filming. The actual paddle proved too heavy for actress Catherine Lagaha'i, so it was replaced with replicas made from lightweight woods and fiberglass.
