Disney releases “Along the Way,” a new original song written by Lin-Manuel Miranda for its upcoming live-action remake of “Moana.” According to multiple outlets, the track features vocals from both actresses who have played Moana in different projects. Auli‘i Cravalho—who voiced Moana in Disney’s 2016 animated film “Moana” and the 2024 sequel “Moana 2”—joins Catherine Laga‘aia, who plays Moana in the live-action film. The song is also performed with Dwayne Johnson, who reprises his role as the demigod Maui. Variety and Deadline describe “Along the Way” as highlighting the two Moana actresses, with Laga‘aia portrayed as Moana in the forthcoming movie and Cravalho returning to sing as the character from the animated films. Billboard similarly reports the track’s release and the credited performers, naming Johnson as Maui and including both Moanas in the vocal performance. The sources agree the song is Miranda-written, tied to the live-action “Moana” project, and released as a new promotional single.
