Moana 2 is preparing to welcome the big day, a period of just a few weeks. It has already broke the record for this year. On Monday, it became the highest pre-sale film of the year over Inside Out 2 that is considered to be one of the biggest blockbusters for this year. The film will release along with the other two big movies namely Wicked Part 1 and Gladiator II. Check down below for the deets.
For the uninitiated, it is the sequel of the 2016 film directed by Chris Williams and Don Hall. Critics wrote glowing reviews for it. The movie also did economically well. Fans have been following it for a long time, and the popularity levels are so high that now another live-action remake has been in development. Dwayne Johnson is again heard voicing Maui, with Auli’i Cravalho in the role of the titular character. Returning from the previous movie are Temuera Morrison, Nicole Scherzinger, Rachel House, and Alan Tudyk.
The Hollywood Reporter indicates that Moana 2 has broken records of first-day advance ticket sales. According to the analysis of the online retailer Fandango, the report states this new animated musical sold more tickets than any other 2024 animated movie, including the Disney/Pixar summer 2024 blockbuster Inside Out 2.

Moana 2 also emerges as the fourth-best show of the year by any movie after Deadpool & Wolverine, Wicked, and Dune: Part Two. The movie is coming five days after Wicked Part 1 and Gladiator II. As per THR report, “The exhibitors are all about this trio of tentpole movies to propel box office sales after a poor third quarter opening”. The much-awaited movies, Joker: Folie a Deux and Venom: The Last Dance, did not attract people to the theatres during the fall season.
The movie grossed $248.75 million and $394.57 million internationally. In total, Moana grossed $643.33 million globally.
Sequel Directors: The film was directed by David Derrick Jr., Jason Hand, and Dana Ledoux Miller. The movie took place three years after the previous film.
