Moana Beats Frozen's Record On Thanksgiving Eve

The newest Disney film "Moana" just raked in a shocking $15.7 million at the box office on the Thanksgiving Eve. It has beaten the $15.2 million record of 2013 Disney film "Frozen."

With that success, Moana is expected to beat Frozen's five-day record of $93.5 million, as per Box Office Mojo who facilitates the tracking in film earnings. They estimated that Moana could gain a $94 million in the five-day long weekend given that it is rated in Rotten Tomatoes 97%.

According to Mail Online, it is quite an achievement for the first timer Auli'I Cravalho, the voice behind Moana, a South Seas Island girl who on an epic journey to find a magical stone to save her home. In this journey, Moana is accompanied by her hero, a demi-god Maui, who is voiced by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

Hundreds of young girls auditioned to be Moana but Rachel Sutton discovered last Auli'I when singing in a local charity competition. The first-timer Auli'l just turned 16 last Tuesday. She's from the town of Mililani on the Hawaiian Island of O'ahu.

Moana got a lot of buzz in the social media; it held its premiere night at El Capitan in Hollywood with all the main voice cast in attendance last Nov. 14.

Last Sunday a barrage of celebrities brought along their children to watch the screening in New York including Neil Patrick Harris husband David Burtka with their six-year-old twins Harper and Gideon, Josh Lucas with his ex-wife Jessica Ciencin Henriquez with their four-year-old son Noah Rev Maurer. Also adding in the crowd are Jason Biggs with wife Jenny Mollen with their two-year-old son Sid, Alysia Reiner and husband David Alan Basche, Malin Akerman and Jeffrey Tambor.

With the expectations so high on the movie Moana, the following its US opening will be showing on Dec. 2 in UK. Would you watch "Moana"? Share you thought on the comment section.
