If you have kids, you’ve probably seen Moana… at least fifteen times. While it’s fairly obvious that Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has a big part in it (he voices Maui) younger children might not be as quick to place his voice. Sure, The Rock is one of the top actors in the world. But, kids are more focused on the characters they play.
Sadly, even Dwayne’s children have a hard time believing that he was actually in the movie. The film. which was critically acclaimed, also starred the talented voices of Auli’i Cravalho, Rachel House, and Jemaine Clement. It has heavy roots in Polynesian folklore and tales, which also made it stand out from any other Disney film.
The movie was truly a big deal for Dwayne. Even though he’s been a leading actor in many films, this is one that the entire family can enjoy over and over again. He’s likely seen it countless times, but there’s still a bit of a disconnect when watching with his daughter Tia.
Even though Dwayne sings Tia Maui’s notable song “You’re Welcome,” she still doesn’t believe that her father actually is Maui. Thanks to a cute video on Instagram, Dwayne explained why.
