Disney's live-action "Moana" opened to a disappointing $43-$45 million domestically and $52 million internationally, totaling approximately $95 million worldwide. The performance marks one of the weakest debuts among Disney's live-action remakes, raising questions about the studio's strategy for adapting its most popular franchises. The film is projected to lose $100-$125 million, despite positive audience reception on Rotten Tomatoes, as it faces competition from "Toy Story 5," which crossed $879 million globally.
