Auli’i Cravalho

Cravalho first captured our hearts as the title role of Walt Disney Animation Studios' worldwide hit film MOANA, opposite Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, with music by Lin Manuel-Miranda. She performed the Oscar-nominated song "How Far I'll Go" live at the Academy Awards in 2017. She quickly and seamlessly transitioned from voice-over to on-camera roles, starring alongside Josh Radnor and Rosie Perez in the Jason Katims series RISE for NBC, and in ABC's live production of THE LITTLE MERMAID as Ariel. Brett Haley directed her as the lead of his Netflix film ALL TOGETHER NOW, with Carol Burnett, Fred Armisen, and Justina Machado. She can also be seen starring in Hulu's queer teen romcom CRUSH, directed by Sammi Cohen, which was nominated for a GLAAD Media Award as well as the 20th Century Studios film for Hulu, DARBY AND THE DEAD. She can currently be seen in the Amazon series THE POWER, based on the Naomi Alderman novel of the same name. She stars as Jos Cleary-Lopez, opposite John Leguizamo and Toni Collette. Cravalho voices the title character, Hailey, a risk-averse but resourceful teenager, in Disney Branded Television's "Hailey's On It!" which airs on Disney Channel and Disney+ this June. She just wrapped production on Broadway Video and Paramount Picture's MEAN GIRLS THE MUSICAL, playing the role of Janis. Cravalho is an Executive Producer on Disney’s Live-Action remake of Moana.
