Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, a household name in both professional wrestling and Hollywood, has unveiled an exciting new chapter in his career—one that brings a special family connection to the spotlight. Johnson’s daughters, Jasmine and Tiana, are set to make their acting debut in Disney's highly anticipated sequel Moana 2.
The WWE legend took to social media recently to share a heartwarming glimpse into the project. In a video, the proud father showcased his daughters in the recording booth, contributing their voices to the beloved animated universe.
Here is the video:
He captioned the moment, “Introducing your #Moana2 Moana-Be’s My two tornados Jazzy & Tia. It was a family affair at the @DisneyAnimation recording studios and everyone had a blast!” Johnson also hinted at their playful roles in the movie, humorously teasing that they would be “handing out L’s to Maui” when the film hits theatres this Thanksgiving on November 29, 2024.
This announcement holds extra weight given The Rock’s deep ties to the Moana franchise. The original 2016 film, in which Johnson lent his voice to the character of Maui, grossed an impressive $687.2 million worldwide. Its success cemented Johnson as not just a Hollywood action star but a dynamic voice actor capable of delivering heartfelt performances.
A deeply personal project for Rock!
For Dwayne Johnson, Moana 2 is more than just another box-office hit. As he shared, the project is “deeply personal,” and having his daughters involved only strengthens that sentiment. The collaboration marks an extraordinary moment where family and professional achievements intertwine, making it a milestone not just for Johnson but for Disney fans globally.
Meanwhile, wrestling enthusiasts are keeping an eye on Johnson's sporadic appearances in WWE. Following his surprise return at WWE Bad Blood, rumours of a more consistent role have been swirling. However, insiders like WrestleVotes confirmed that while The Rock is likely to appear more frequently, he won’t be tied to a specific brand.
With Moana 2 on the horizon and potential WWE moments to savour, Johnson’s career continues to transcend boundaries, captivating audiences in every realm he steps into. Whether in the ring, on screen, or behind the microphone, The Rock’s presence is as electrifying as ever.
