Our FOMO was severe last weekend while the Disney D23 Expo was taking place, and turns out it was completely justified.
Not only did lucky attendees get a first glimpse at Emma Watson as Belle AND a teaser of the Finding Nemo sequel but they were also treated to a sneak peek at the brand new Disney princess, Moana.

Moana is Disney’s first polynesian princess and judging by these sketches, she is going to be pretty kick-ass.

Moana is all about a young woman who sets sail across the open ocean to prove herself as a master navigator and seafarer and is due for release in November 2016.
