The 'Moana' sequel is projected to rake in $135-$145 million in its first 5 days, outpacing the $123 million opening of 'Frozen 2' - a welcome boost for the industry after a tepid year.
With screenings in over 4,200 North American theaters, 'Moana 2' is banking on the nostalgia factor and Disney's proven track record to deliver a much-needed holiday hit for the studio.
