Moana 2026
Summary
The casting for the live-actionMoanas Sina is a secretly perfect casting.
Sina is the mother to protagonist Moana, and wife to Chief Tui, Moanas father.
In 2016s version ofMoana,Sina is voiced by Nicole Scherzinger.
Dwayne Johnson will return to his role of demigod Maui, but the majority of thelive-actionMoanacastincludes new actors.
Sina is one of said recast roles, that will be taken over by Frankie Adams.
The titular role of Moana will be played by newcomer Catherine Laga’aia in the live-actionMoana.
As a character, Draper is a fighter who has been involved in a number of violent battles.
This makesMoanas Sina a character challenge for Adams, who is tasked with taking on a very different role.
Though their actions manifest differently, both of the characters have a huge loyalty to their homes.
In Disney’s live-action adaptation of “Moana,” a young Polynesian girl embarks on a daring voyage to save her people, seeking the demigod Maui’s help to restore the heart of Te Fiti.
For Draper, this takes the form of Martian nationalism, while Sina works to protect Motunui.
Thesimilar sensibility makes it such that Adams is the perfect choice forMoanas Sinaafter all.
