For many tamariki their first viewing of Moana 2 will be in te reo - and when they hear the main character talking and singing, they will hear the voice of Jaedyn Randell.
Jaedyn, (Tainui) grew up in Hamilton but studied music technology at the creative arts school at Massey University in Wellington.
Earlier this year she won big plaudits for her performances on The Voice Australia.
She was cast as the voice of Moana in the first te reo version of the film in 2017.
As well as her singing career, Jaedyn has a Masters in Teaching, and taught high school before her recent move to Melbourne three months ago.
