The film is following a brilliant marketing campaign, targeting the U.S., Korea, France, and Italy on Wednesday. In the following days, Moana 2’s business will grow with a grand release in other countries. The animated venture has reportedly defeated Frozen II and The Super Mario Bros in pre-sales. Looking at the overseas opening, the film is expected to trend similarly to Finding Dory, Incredibles 2, and Despicable 4. Moana 2’s sequel value and Thanksgiving weekend are expected to provide to great push to the film at the ticket windows.
Will Moana 2 flop or succeed?
Moana 2 is most likely to become a massive success at the box office.
The film’s first part has garnered cult status and emerged as a blockbuster with $643.3 million at the global box office. Moana’s franchise awareness increased over the years with Part 1’s digital release on Disney Plus. Fans are eagerly waiting for Moana’s new journey across Oceania, with the film set three years after the events of the first part.
Despite facing semi-clash with Gladiator 2 and Wicked: Part One, the film might have an upper hand with a family-friendly runtime of 100 minutes. Further, the return of fan-favorite characters especially Maui, voiced by Dwayne Johnson, is like a cherry on top. Nevertheless, fans need to wait for the audience’s reception to get a better idea of its box office results.
Moana 2 will hit theaters on November 27, 2024, in the United States.
