“Deeply humbled to announce we’re bringing the beautiful story of ‘Moana’ to the live action big screen!” Johnson wrote in the caption of his announcement on Instagram.”This story is my culture, and this story is emblematic of our people’s grace, mana and warrior strength.I wear our culture proudly on my skin and in my soul, and this once in a lifetime opportunity to reunite with MAUI, inspired by the spirit of my late grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia, is one that runs very deep for me”.
