Lin-Manuel Miranda’s next project is penning songs for Disney’s upcoming animated film Moana, which stars Auli’i Cravalho as the titular Moana, who sets on an adventure to help her family, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as a demi-god. It already sounds awesome, but to get some more press, Lin-Manuel Miranda took over Disney Animation’s Instagram account today.
