Dwayne Johnson spoke with 'Entertainment Weekly' about 'Moana 2,' masculinity and the 'superpower' of 'asking for help'

Dwayne Johnson will sing again in Moana 2. Moana 2 will be released in United States theaters this coming November. The animated movie will see Johnson reprise his role as Maui, while Auli’i Cravalho also returns to voice Moana.

Actor Dwayne Johnson hit an emotional note while talking about his upcoming film, Moana 2. He shared his perspective of true masculinity which he believes lies in asking for help when needed. In talks with Entertainment Weekly about his character Maui from Moana and its sequel, Dwayne said, “The idea of asking for help is actually a superpower.”

Dwayne Johnson isn’t just one of the biggest movie stars in the world. He’s a movie star who is literally big, as in physically imposing. While everybody knows about his professional wrestling past, it’s hard to understate just how big and strong the guy is.

Dwayne Johnson is bluntly and positively embracing the strength of seeking assistance whenever it is necessary as he reflects on the meaning of 'true masculinity'. He plays Maui in Moana, the sequel of which is slated for a November 2024 release.

"The strongest of people need help," Johnson tells EW. Dwayne Johnson — and by extension, his Moana character, demi-god Maui — looks strong enough to handle anything. But sometimes the strongest thing a person can do is ask for help.
