Cravalho shot to fame in 2016 after voicing the lead in "Moana," Disney's highest-grossing animated princess movie other than the "Frozen" titles. She was 16 when it premiered — and told People that before the movie, she was living on food stamps.

Moana star Auliʻi Cravalho knows that feeling quite well, based on a funny anecdote she recently shared. The actress recalled the first time she met co-star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. It was at that point that Cravalho’s mom threw a flirty comment Johnson’s way.

AMC is celebrating this early AM that the No. 1 circuit pulled in an-all-time attendance record of 8.8 million people around the world over the Wednesday through Sunday span due to Disney’s Moana 2, Universal’s Wicked and Paramount’s Gladiator II.

Disney's animated sequel to 2016's original debuted in theaters across North America on Wednesday, Nov. 27 and earned a five-day domestic debut of $221 million, as families caught up with Auli'i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson 's beloved animated characters on the seas of Polynesia.
