Looks like the Rock is lending his voice to Disney’s new animated movie…
On his Twitter today, the actor confirmed that he will voice Maui, a demigod who aids the title character Moana.
The movie will be CGI and from Ron Clements and John Musker and is: “set in the ancient South Pacific world of Oceania. Moana, a born navigator, searches for a fabled island and her incredible journey teams with her hero, the legendary demi-god Maui, as they traverse the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous sea creatures, breathtaking underworlds and ancient folklore.”
Still no announcement on who’ll play Moana: “Moana is indomitable, passionate and a dreamer with a unique connection to the ocean itself,” Musker said. “She’s the kind of character we all root for, and we can’t wait to introduce her to audiences.”
Excited to star as “Maui” in Disney’s next big animated musical, MOANA. Incredible story! **clears throat #TimeToSing http://t.co/mtuvFgRkaE
