Disney Has released a little sneak peek showing off the first official footage from their upcoming animated film Moana. 

The movie stars Auli’i Cravalho as the title character, along with Dwayne Johnson, who takes on the role of the demigod Maui. His character will aid Moana on her journey. Here’s a synopsis that was released for the film previously:

In the ancient South Pacific world of Oceania, Moana, a born navigator, sets sail in search of a fabled island. During her incredible journey, she teams up with her hero, the legendary demi-god Maui, to traverse the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous sea creatures, breathtaking underworlds and ancient folklore.

I got to see some footage from the movie at D23 ast summer, and I loved what I saw. This movie is beautifully animated, and it looks like it will be another hit for Disney Animation. 

Moana is directed by animation vets Ron Clements and John Musker (The Little Mermaid), and it will be released on November 23rd, 2016.
