The first look at ‘Moana 2‘ villain “Matangi” has been revealed in a new promotional image. The first trailer for the Moana sequel gave us a hint of a mysterious, villainous character named “Matangi,” who poses a new threat to Moana and Maui. See the image below.
In the trailer, Matangi says, “You will be destroyed. And your Wayfinder, too.” Awhimai Fraser voices the character.
According to reports, Matangi’s form blends with the bats surrounding her—appearing to flow around her like a living cloak. The name “Matangi” means “Goddess of Wisdom” or “Divine Mother” and is also the name of a Hindu goddess associated with inner thought and speech.
