The latest trailer for Disney's live-action Moana remake gives us our first look at Dwayne Johnson in the role of Maui. Released in 2016, the original animated film follows the titular Moana as she embarks on a journey to return the heart of goddess Te Fitti from Maui, a demigod, after the crops and fish on her island begin to die.

Moana was a huge success, earning two Oscar nominations, and a live-action remake was announced in 2023 with Catherine Laga'aia in the role of Moana, alongside Johnson as the tattooed, flowing-haired demigod, the character he also voiced in the original film.
