In the first days of the month, Disney announces the ‘Moana‘ sequel as a strategy to increase its revenue. This has completely fulfilled its intention, as it has excited all the movie franchise fans with the announcement of another continuation of a cinematographic masterpiece.
This movie set for Thanksgiving Day was a surprise for fans because it was announced in 2020 that this continuation was about to be a series for the Disney+ streaming platform, generating many doubts about the change in format of the production.
According to The Wrap media, this strategy of the studio was due to the results it received after the COVID-19 and ousted CEO Bob Chapek impact on its revenue, who during his mandate brought a lot of new content to the platform with productions that mostly did not go through movie theaters.
A few months ago, some executives reunited to watch the chapters of the Moana series, which almost ended, concluding that the writer and director David G. Derrick Jr. exceeded expectations, making them take the decision to combine the episodes and make a movie for the big screen.
However, this is not the only reason, as the release brings the studio many financial benefits, such as increased revenue from ticket sales, increased interest in new theme park attractions, and an increase in merchandise sales.
All this is due to the great interest that could generate this upcoming ‘Moana’ movie, with details such as the possible return of The Rock in his role as Maui, which fans would love, something that might not have happened if it were a series due to the high cost of his work, making the movie success.
