The sequel’s streaming success builds upon the monumental popularity of the original “Moana,” which has now exceeded 1.4 billion hours streamed on Disney+. To put that into perspective, that’s equivalent to streaming the film over 735 million times or listening to the iconic anthem “How Far I’ll Go” on repeat for more than 50,000 years. Notably, 2024 saw “Moana” achieve its most-streamed year ever, further cementing its status as the most-streamed film on Disney+ since the platform’s 2019 launch.
Before its streaming debut, “Moana 2” made waves at the box office, securing the biggest Thanksgiving weekend opening in history and the highest opening in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ history. With a “Certified-Fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes™, the film’s momentum surged, ultimately surpassing $1 billion worldwide and claiming the title of the third highest-grossing Walt Disney Animation Studios release of all time.
The combined success of “Moana” and “Moana 2” highlights the enduring appeal of the franchise, captivating audiences across the globe and setting new benchmarks for animated film success in both theatrical releases and streaming platforms.
