It's so odd that all these posters constantly demand Disney lower their film budgets but then get really upset when they lower a film's budget.

Almost like they're insincere.
Lowering a budget is one thing. Making it under a seemingly compressed timetable is another. If they are still lining up voice talent, that is worrisome, as that’s usually one of the first things produced before the animators get to working.

Or they are having the original actors come in to re-record the vocals of the actors they got when it was a D+ series.

I don't think there is any way possible that they will release Moana 2 in the theaters without Dwayne Johnson and Aulii Cravalho. If it stayed on D+ then yes that would be fine but not as a theatrical release.

Exactly my point, the poster was saying it was worrisome that they hadn’t lined up voice actors yet. They had voice actors likely lined up that already recorded their lines for when it was a D+ series. Now that it’s a feature release they are having the original actors when possible come into re-record the lines.

You’re proving the point that the demands aren’t actually being considered. Less production time is a very common way of lowering a budget and/or meeting a smaller budget. Not using big name talent was also part of having a lower budget.

I'm pretty sure that Lin-Manuel Miranda is busy working on his next stage production, a musical adaptation of The Warriors.

I've never watched Bridgerton, but the unofficial musical is pretty hilarious. Give it a listen, if you haven't heard it before. Barlow & Bear is a pretty good get for this, I think. Bear is a 22-year old jazz pianist with impressive accolades, but has done stuff in different musical genres, too.

He's working on the live action remake, he would have worked on this if it had been planned as a theatrical film from the beginning.

Sure, but that probably entails adding just a single song for Oscar consideration, not coming up with a whole new slate of them. He wasn't the composer of Moana. That was largely Mark Mancina who is back for this installment.

Original Poster
Bob Iger shared a first look at Moana 2.

In Walt Disney Animation Studios’ all-new epic animated musical, Moana 2, three years since her first voyage, Moana is on an expansive journey in search of people beyond the shores of Motunui.

Joined by Maui and a brand-new crew of unlikely seafarers, Moana must journey to the far seas of Oceania and into dangerous, long-lost waters for an adventure unlike anything she’s ever faced.

Featuring the voices of Auli‘i Cravalho as Moana and Dwayne Johnson as Maui, Moana 2 opens in theaters November 27, 2024.

I don’t think I should worry about Moana 2 at the box office. I mean, Moana is one of Disney’s famous modern franchises. Same goes to Zootopia 2 and Frozen 3. I don’t know if Frozen 4 is going to happen, but I WDAS have original films in the works.
