Did Disney swipe Moana’s story? $10 billion lawsuit by animator says ‘yes’

Animator Buck Woodall has filed a lawsuit against Disney, accusing the company of copying the concept for its animated movie Moana and its sequel, according to a report by The Hollywood Reporter. The lawsuit was filed last week in a California federal court, alleging that Disney took elements from a screenplay Woodall wrote for an animated project called Bucky. Both works reportedly share themes of teenagers from an ancient Polynesian village embarking on adventures to save their homes.
