Who is Matangi in Moana 2? Matangi is one of the new antagonists we meet in Moana 2. In the trailer, she appears in a swarm of bats and poses a big threat to Moana and Maui, though not much else is revealed about her. She’s shown to have magical powers—she can create tornadoes, which suggests she might be a god or a demigod like Maui. While she has a human form, Matangi also seems able to disappear or transform, hinting she could be a shapeshifter with abilities granted by other gods. There isn’t a figure named Matangi in traditional Polynesian mythology, but her name ties back to the Maori word for “breeze” or “wind,” which fits with her tornado powers and bat transformations. Since Maui is also connected to the wind and sea, Moana 2 might explore an interesting link between the two characters. Matangi won’t be the main villain—she’s a secondary antagonist, with the primary one being another deity named Nalo, who likely has some connection to her.
