Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Like many, I felt a twinge of disappointment to learn that Auli’i Cravalho would not be returning to the world of Motunui for the live-action Moana. Contributing her vocal talents to the anthem “How Far I’ll Go,” Cravalho was a breakout star in 2016’s Moana and breathed life into the Disney film.
Auli'i Cravalho Could Play Te Fiti In Moana's Live-Action Remake Cravalho Is Too Young To Play Other Moana Characters If I were to place Cravalho in any role in the live-action Moana, it would be as Te Fiti. Though the character does not have a speaking role in the 2016 version of Moana, the green, life-creating goddess is a crucial piece of the lore surrounding the film. She used her powers to create the Polynesian islands, which includes Moana’s home of Motunui.
Auli'i Cravalho Can Help Restore Moana's Original Te Fiti Plan Te Fiti Was Supposed To Have A Bigger Role In Moana Close My proposed Te Fiti tie-in would not be completely out of left field for the Moana franchise. According to plans from Disney, Te Fiti was originally supposed to be a speaking role in the 2016 animated film, but the idea was scrapped, and she was relegated to a silent presence.
Giving Te Fiti a bigger role, however, would allow the live-action Moana to stand out from its animated counterpart. I am uninterested in yet another near one-to-one live-action remake of a Disney classic , and with the live-action Moana arriving only 10 years after the original, it has to do something different to be worth the remake. Reworking Te Fiti, especially under the acting talents of the beloved Cravalho, could be a great way for 2026’s Moana to accomplish this distinction.
