In a surprise announcement, Disney has set definitive release dates for several of their upcoming major movies, including delaying the live-action Moana movie by one whole year.

Here are the release dates (via The Hollywood Reporter):

In 2023, Disney previously announced that a live-action Moana movie is in the works.

Directed by Jon Favreau, and produced by Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, and Dave Filoni, The Mandalorian & Grogu will go into production in 2024.

The Mandalorian & Grogu will lead Lucasfilm’s ongoing feature-development slate, including films helmed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold, and Dave Filoni, who is also currently developing Ahsoka Season 2, among those in the works.

This movie is apparently in addition to the is three previously-announced Star Wars movies currently in development.
