Undoubtedly, in an exercise of marketing synergy with tonight’s Tony awards, Disney released the first trailer to Moana via their official YouTube account.
Of course, after some dramatic storytelling and a well-choreographed dance, we cut to Moana and her little pig sidekick, who are both un-impressed.
Cue the title cards, and brand new music from Hamilton’s Lin-Manuel Miranda, Opetaia Foa’i and Mark Mancina.
What follows is an absolutely breathtaking clip reel that shows us images of Moana’s lush visual imagery, with everything from sea turtles, sailing ships, and Dwayne Johnson’s trademark smirk taking center stage.
