Moana 2 Seemed To Position Moni As A Potential Love Interest For Moana

Moni Serves As The Island’s Historian And Part Of Moana’s New Crew

One of several newfangled characters inMoana 2is Moni , who serve as Montunui ’s principal historian and storyteller to the island ’s children . He is a full-grown fan of the demigod , Maui , and creates tapestry depicting himself and Maui in different adventures . He becomes one of three islander who Moana recruit as part of her young work party to take part in her newfangled military mission to set up Motufetu . Throughout the motion-picture show , Moni serves as the strength of the crewand is described by his vox actor , Hualalai Chung , as " whimsical , warmhearted , and playfulness - love " to everyone ( viaComingSoon ) .

In the beginning , it was hinted that Moni could serve as a likely love interest for Moana . Out of the three islander who Moana recruit , Moni was the most eager to bring together her on her new mission . During Moana ’s recruitment , Moni secern her that she needs a extremity " who knows all the old stories " and is " exceedingly stiff " and " has great hair " for the squad . Moana sees that Moni is subtly come to to himself in his description and is shown to be impressed with what she sees ; she ultimately chooses Moni to link her crew .

Moana Didn’t Need Moni Or Any Love Interest In Moana 2

The Film Producers Never Intended For Moana To Have A Love Interest

While it was ab initio hint that Moana and Moni could become a distich at the beginning of the motion picture , bythe end ofMoana 2 , the potential romance was disputed . During their journeying to Motufetu , it was shown that Moni was more interested in befriend Maui ; the two do terminate up becoming Friend and telling stories to the island ’s children . Moana 2 ’s director , Dana Ledoux Miller , state in an interviewvia Yahoo ! UKthat it was never intended to create a love interest for Moana ; her true focus is " her cryptic friendships " with the other persona .

Moana   2   is now in theaters , and it ’s already breaking records at the box office . While I do n’t think it was as adept as the first   Moana , the sequel does have some entertaining element and an exciting post - credits picture tease   Moana 3 . While it ’s yet to be confirm , I opine it ’s a no - brainer for Disney to make a third   Moana   movie , though I would like to see a stronger narration with some more depth compare to   Moana 2 .

The decisiveness not to preface a love interest was the ripe choice forMoana 2as it would have sum up unneeded complications to Moana ’s determination to defeat Nalo and unite the islands . Moana ’s transformation into a demigodafter courageously sacrificing herself to raise Motufetu proved that she did n’t require a love interest to acquire as a character and answer her tribe on Montunui . While it was initially hinted that a human relationship could take place between Moana and Moni , the filmmakers opt to keep the floor focus on her mission , preventingMoana 2from entering into another clichéd Disney romance .
