Dwayne Johnson says Disney is discussing a potential third “Moana” film as the studio’s live-action adaptation approaches theaters. According to Variety, Johnson teased the development while promoting the live-action “Moana,” which opens in theaters on July 10. During a press appearance, he responds affirmatively when asked about “Moana 3,” indicating that talks about another installment have taken place.
ComingSoon.net reports a similar update, describing Johnson’s comments after he appears at a Moana musical performance in London and is asked about the long-awaited possibility of a third movie. Both outlets frame the remarks as confirming that “Moana 3” has been discussed, rather than announcing a finalized production plan.
Taken together, the reports indicate that Johnson, who voices Maui in the animated franchise, is signaling interest and ongoing conversations about a follow-up project ahead of the live-action film’s release. The sources do not provide additional details such as a script status, release date, or creative team beyond Johnson’s involvement with the franchise.
