Live-Action Moana Clip Shows ROLLY Singing Tamatoa's Shiny

Disney released a clip from the live-action Moana film featuring the giant crab Tamatoa performing the song Shiny. In the Japanese dub, ROLLY reprises the role from the animated version. The film opened in Japan on July 31, drawing 256,644 viewers and earning 370 million yen in its first three days.

Disney has released a new clip from the live-action Moana film, now showing in Japan, that centers on the giant crab Tamatoa and his song Shiny. The sequence, set in an underwater lair filled with gold and jewels, shows Tamatoa showing off his glittering shell in a performance that the studio says is more lavish than the animated original.

In the Japanese dub, ROLLY voices Tamatoa, a role he played in the 2016 animated film. The clip highlights his singing, and social media reactions quoted in the release praise the scene as flashy and gorgeous. The film stars Catherine Laga'aia as Moana and Dwayne Johnson as Maui, with TSUZUMI of ME:I and Matsuya Onoe in the Japanese dub.
