このコンテンツについて
Catherine Laga'aia continues to make waves in Hollywood as one of the most exciting rising stars in entertainment. The 18-year-old Australian actress of Samoan heritage is preparing for what could be the defining role of her career with Disney's live-action Moana remake, scheduled for release on July 10, 2026.
Most recently, Catherine attended the 2025 AACTA Awards presented by Foxtel Group at HOTA on February 7, 2025, in Gold Coast, Australia, marking another public appearance as her profile continues to rise in the industry. This event highlighted her growing presence in Australian entertainment circles.
The biggest news surrounding Catherine remains her casting as the titular character Moana alongside Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who reprises his role as the demigod Maui. The live-action adaptation's first teaser trailer has already been released, giving audiences their first glimpse of Catherine bringing the beloved character to life. In the trailer, she showcases her vocal talents by performing the iconic theme song "How Far I'll Go," demonstrating that she's not just an actress but a performer in the fullest sense.
What makes Catherine's casting particularly significant is not just her talent, but her authentic connection to Polynesian heritage. Born December 17, 2006, in Sydney, Catherine is of Samoan descent, with her grandfather hailing from Fa'aala, Palauli in Savai'i and her grandmother from Leulumoega Tuai on Upolu in Samoa. This genuine representation matters deeply to her, as she's stated her excitement about representing young girls who look like her.
Though Moana marks her first major film role, Catherine isn't entirely new to acting. She previously appeared in three episodes of Amazon Prime Video's Australian drama series The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart in 2023. Her connection to entertainment runs deep through her family, as her father Jay Laga'aia is an established actor best known for his role as Captain Typho in the Star Wars prequel trilogy.
Director Thomas Kail, an Emmy and Tony Award winner known for Hamilton, has expressed his enthusiasm about working with Catherine on this project. With production underway and the film's release less than a year away, all eyes are on this fresh-faced actress who could very well become Hollywood's next breakout star.
