WATCH: Dwayne Johnson hilariously gushes over rocking a head full of hair as Maui in 'Moana'

Dwayne Johnson enthusiastically interacted with reporters at the "Moana Experience" promotional launch event in London. The actor humorously broke into a broad smile as he was asked about his character's luscious hair, laughing while describing how "freeing" it felt to finally sport long, flowing locks and proudly noting that he even mastered the art of the perfect hair flip during production. The promotional stop at Potters Fields Park occurred just ahead of Disney's highly anticipated live-action reimagining of 'Moana', which is slated to hit global theaters on July 10, 2026. Directed by Thomas Kail, the film stars breakout actor Catherine Laga'aia in the titular role alongside Johnson, who reprised his role as the demigod Maui from the original 2016 animated feature.
