"Moana 2)," the anticipated sequel to the 2016 Oscar-nominated Disney animated film "Moana)," was originally meant to debut on Disney+. Instead, it's being released in theaters this week and was re-worked to play on the big screen. Co-Director and Co-Writer Dana Ledoux Miller was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about her work on the film, its production journey to get to this point, her love of the characters, working with new songwriters and more for her feature directorial debut. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from Walt Disney Animation Studios and is up for your consideration in all eligible categories at the 97th Academy Awards, including Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song. Thank you, and enjoy!
