The Olympics have been on our TV non-stop. I love watching all of the different sports and cheering on these amazing athletes. Now, if I had to associate one Disney princess with the Olympics, it would be Moana. Sure, we haven’t completely met her yet as the movie doesn’t come out until Thanksgiving, but I can already tell she’s got some serious athletic skills and the perseverance to never give up.

Everything about this movie looks amazing. I just know I’ll be cracking up at Maui, as he is a bit full of himself in that endearing and funny way – and I have a feeling I may need a tissue or two as well. In case you missed the official trailer, check it out:

Voice Cast: Auli‘i Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson

Directors: Ron Clements, John Musker

Producer: Osnat Shurer

Three thousand years ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast Pacific, discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a millennium, their voyages stopped – and no one knows why.

From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes “Moana,” a sweeping, CG-animated feature film about an adventurous teenager who sails out on a daring mission to save her people. During her journey, Moana (voice of Auli’i Cravalho) meets the once-mighty demigod Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson), who guides her in her quest to become a master wayfinder. Together, they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds, and along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she’s always sought: her own identity. Directed by the renowned filmmaking team of Ron Clements and John Musker (“The Little Mermaid,” “Aladdin,” “The Princess & the Frog”) and produced by Osnat Shurer (“Lifted,” “One Man Band”).
