Moana's voice, Auliʻi Cravalho takes the next step Auliʻi Cravalho’s life changed forever at age 14 when she was plucked from obscurity and cast as the voice of Disney’s “Moana.”Auliʻi Cravalho’s life changed forever at age 14 when she was cast as the voice of Disney’s “Moana.” The Hawaiian native loved singing and acting, but they were just hobbies to her. “But life decided to surprise me,” said Cravalho, who went from obscurity to performing at the Oscars in just a few months. Now at 19, Cravalho is checking off another milestone: Her first live-action film, “All Together Now,” is being released on Netflix Friday. Based on Matthew Quick’s novel “Sorta Like a Rock Star,” the film from director Brett Haley finds Cravalho playing a very different kind of character from the adventurous Polynesian princess. Amber is a high school student with a to-die-for voice, an unflappable optimism and a dream of going to Carnegie Mellon.
