- Disney bet big on one of its most popular franchises and most-streamed movie. The live-action remake failed to make a big splash
Disney's live-action 'Moana' earned $43 million domestically and $95 million globally in its first weekend, underperforming relative to its $250 million production cost. Critics panned it as a shot-for-shot remake, while audiences showed mixed but generally positive reactions. The film faces competition from other PG-rated family films like 'Minions & Monsters' and 'Toy Story 5'.
