Exclusive: Disney+ will soon feature a Maori version of “Coco” this month

In an effort to expand the accessibility and inclusivity of its content, Disney+ has made an exciting announcement for fans of the acclaimed Pixar film “Coco.” Set to be released later this month, the streaming service will feature a special Maori voiceover option for the popular animated movie. This strategic move is indicative of Disney’s commitment to cater to a diverse and global audience, ensuring that the film’s themes and message can resonate with viewers from different linguistic backgrounds.

The Maori dubbing project for “Coco” has been a collaborative effort between Disney+ and Matewa Media, a prominent New Zealand-based production company known for its expertise in creating Maori-language versions of various Disney classics. With previous successful Maori adaptations of beloved films such as “The Lion King,” “Frozen,” and “Moana,” Matewa Media has established itself as a key player in the localization of Disney’s content for a wider audience.

For those unfamiliar, “Coco” tells the heartwarming tale of Miguel, a young boy with a passion for music, who embarks on an extraordinary journey to the Land of the Dead to unlock the mysteries of his family’s past. The film received widespread acclaim upon its initial release in 2017, captivating audiences with its vibrant visuals, rich storytelling, and culturally resonant narrative. Now, with the addition of the Maori voiceover option, Disney+ aims to provide an authentic and immersive viewing experience for Maori-speaking audiences in the US, New Zealand, Australia, and Canada.

The inclusion of the Maori language option in “Coco” on Disney+ is a significant step toward fostering cultural representation and linguistic diversity within the streaming platform’s extensive catalog. By embracing the unique cultural nuances and linguistic identities of its global audience, Disney+ continues to reinforce its commitment to promoting inclusivity and ensuring that its content resonates with viewers worldwide. Fans eagerly anticipating the Maori version of “Coco” can look forward to its release on Disney+ starting from October 30, marking a milestone in the platform’s efforts to make meaningful and culturally relevant storytelling accessible to all.
