Plot Summary

Moana 3 (2025) dives back into the rich mythology of Polynesia, bringing fans an all-new adventure where the stakes have never been higher. After years of peace and exploration, Moana returns to her island only to discover that the ocean’s balance is once again disturbed—this time by a mysterious force known only as Te Aka, “The Shadow Beneath.”

Guided by ancestral visions and a calling from the ocean, Moana reunites with the mischievous demigod Maui to venture into uncharted waters beyond the known world. Together, they face ancient sea creatures, forgotten gods, and a civilization lost to time—one that holds a secret even the ocean fears.

As Moana’s leadership is tested like never before, she must embrace both tradition and change to become more than a wayfinder—she must become a protector of all life that flows through the ocean’s veins.

With returning stars and a beautifully expanded lore, Moana 3 is not just a sequel—it’s a journey into the soul of the ocean.
