As a movie enthusiast with a heart for character development and a soft spot for strong female leads, I must say that “Can I Get a Chee Hoo?” in Moana 2 is nothing short of magical. It’s not every day you witness a self-centered demi-god like Maui evolve into a supportive mentor, cheering on our plucky heroine when she needs it the most.
In simpler terms, “Can I Get a Chee Hoo?” in Moana 2 portrays Maui, who can be self-centered at times, displaying his usual self-assuredness not for himself but to boost Moana’s confidence when she is in dire need of it. This character is played by Dwayne Johnson, while Auli’i Cravalho plays the role of Moana.
In a recent conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Johnson, Cravalho, Bear, and Barlow shared their favorite aspects of the song and why it encapsulates the growth experienced by our cherished characters from the initial Moana movie. Essentially, they highlighted growth as a significant theme.
Interestingly, the well-known tune “Can I Get a Chee Hoo?” was composed last for the movie, as they struggled to capture the right emotion and tone for Maui during this crucial phase of Moana’s voyage. As Bear explained, their initial attempts at writing inspirational or motivational lyrics often felt too cheesy and awkward. The breakthrough came when they shifted perspective, asking themselves, “If we were in Moana’s position, what words would we want to hear? When everything seems lost and there’s no hope left, what would truly lift our spirits?
She went on to add:
Instead of saying, “It wouldn’t be someone consoling with ‘Oh, it’ll be okay.’ It would be more like, “Moana, perhaps you don’t have faith in your own abilities. Remember, the formidable and mighty storm deity Nalo has faith in you to such an extent that he’s sending monsters after you. He believes in your strength so strongly that he thinks you can overcome this challenge. If he trusts you with that much, then why don’t you believe in yourself?
That, Bear added, “That’s what started the mindset shift.” And thus “Can I Get a Chee Hoo?” was born.
What Is “Can I Get A Chee Hoo?” About? How Does It Tie Into The First ‘Moana’ Movie?
Johnson expressed his affection for growth and the concept that it’s not just about him, but about uplifting someone else. For him, the inspiration was straightforward: “As a devoted father of three daughters, I’m all about girl power and empowering women.
In the initial movie, co-director David G. Derrick noted, she assisted Maui by encouraging him and helping him regain his strength. Later, he mentioned that the song serves as a crucial moment when Maui reciprocates her kindness in an amazing, beautiful manner, making it highly entertaining.
Barlow put it succinctly: “We aimed for Maui to come across as a nurturing figure, either a father or an older brother, supporting his younger sister. We didn’t want to overdo it with babying her or constant praise. It’s more like, ‘Get up and show them what you’re capable of, remember who you are.’
