The 'Moana' TV series for Disney+ finds its director.
Walt Disney Animation announced via Twitter that David G. Derrick Jr. will be directing the upcoming Moana series for Disney +. Derrick joined Disney Animation specifically to work on Moana, which "deepened his connection with his family's Samoan roots." After working as a storyboard artist on The Lion King, Raya and the Last Dragon, and the new hit film Encanto, Derrick will be returning to the world of Moana.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The new Moana series will pick up right after the film left up, and will follow Moana's adventures. The musical series marks one of the first times that Walt Disney Animation will be producing a spin-off television series rather than Disney Television Animation. The series was announced in late 2020 at a Disney Investors meeting, where Disney Animation CCO Jennifer Lee announced it would begin streaming in 2023, which has since been pushed to 2024.
Derrick will be stepping into the director role for the first time. He previously worked at Dreamworks, having worked on such films like Bee Movie, How to Train Your Dragon, and Megamind. After joining Disney Animation to work on Moana, Derrick has worked on multiple projects, including the chart-topping Encanto. Speaking on this opportunity, he said:
