The Coast Breakfast Bonus Podcast with Tony Jason, Sam Hi.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Thanks for listening to our Breakfast Bonus podcast. Today we're
celebrating the release of Muana to the new Disney film
The Week, claiming is a Kiwi film because of all
the Kiwi stars in it, including our guest on the
podcast today. If be my Phraser, who plays Martagi, the
baddie in the movie, Dave Fanner, who plays Killy, who's
the chief who gets to go on the on the
canoe for every funny and Tim Away to Morrison Chief Towey,

(00:30):
he does, how long has this been? Timor Morrison? How
long have you waited? Seven? Eight years? This has been?

Speaker 3 (00:37):
Yeah, as where did the time goes? We find Chief
Towey back in the village keeping an eye on everybody.
But with the second more Wana, it's more about going
beyond the reef, whereas the first one was no.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
One goes beyond the reef.

Speaker 5 (00:51):
Warner, I love your own character for this.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
This is rare.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
I don't know what I'm talking like.

Speaker 6 (00:58):
To do, Dave, So you should be speaking on the radio.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Wonderful night last night bringing out the Maori trail version
and boy, what a night vibrant, vibrant night. Everyone was
so excited and stre alone going to watch the movie,
very family orientated and just it seemed like pacificas it
is buzzing again and igniting itself again, and it's a

(01:27):
it's a bringing together of the of the four winds
of the of the South Pacific and amazing to have
it to our version. But then to also hear that
many New Zealand voices within the story.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
That's what we were shocked at, Like, I don't think
it's been publicized enough here and how key we this
movie actually is.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yes, no, we got that from the Australian media that
they were having a little bit of a giggle over
all curious I was going on. I was talking on
an American.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
That was my American.

Speaker 6 (02:01):
It was funny when we did the voices and when
I first they was approached to do the film and
they said, oh, can you do an American accent? And
I just reminded them that no, m from the Pacific.
All over this area, we all have different ways of speaking.

(02:22):
And then they came back, okay, don't argue, but that
was that realization that you know, we're bigger than just
that American standard, you know voice that the voices of
the Pacific are wider. It's what they're thinking. And I
really liked that they cottoned onto that. And the music again.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Is just incredible, even the little one, the voice over work,
but the singing of this one playing.

Speaker 5 (02:51):
You had a huge role in the movie. Can you
took us through how you got that role? What was
the process?

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Like?

Speaker 7 (02:58):
Sure they will.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
Tell you, No.

Speaker 7 (03:05):
I twenty two an audition came through my agent. Disney's
name was on it. I wasn't sure what the co
propper was, what the role was. It was a bit
of a hidden script. Auditioned for it, sung an a
cappella mashup of songs, did a little scene, and then
didn't hear for about six to seven months. Came back

(03:25):
and I had an email meet and greet with Disney
and I was like.

Speaker 6 (03:30):
What is that?

Speaker 3 (03:31):
This real? Is this real?

Speaker 7 (03:35):
And and and it was? And then I was offered
the role a couple of weeks later.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Wow, yeah, find another way of the song you sing?
There was tuck, There's always another way, get us.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Get us.

Speaker 7 (03:49):
I mean, it's it's amazing. Balo and Beer just smashed
it out the park and I think it really, it's
it sits on its own because Mathanguys is like larger
than life and crazy and and and has bats and
and picker and just flies everywhere here there, behind you,
in front of you. And I think it's really it's
a beautiful.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Listen, listen, just give us.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Lots and lots.

Speaker 7 (04:15):
You're right fun and holding back.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
Then I am, I am just like sing did you
make the cutain the singing?

Speaker 5 (04:30):
Well?

Speaker 3 (04:30):
I heard two lines.

Speaker 6 (04:32):
I had two words, two words, and the thing is
to the old version guys playing Kelly, and who's playing Kelly?
He got a lot more singing. Was worried when they
when they told me your last.

Speaker 7 (04:54):
Confident.

Speaker 6 (04:56):
I don't even care use that.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
I don't know where you came up with your sound, Dave,
you know, and your sound of.

Speaker 6 (05:03):
Your character, sound of sound of killing. You know, those
those grumpy old men are forever moaning about that time
they stubbed the toe two months later. You know, I
stubbed my trunk two months ago and four and so
it was like in the booth, I was, you know,

(05:24):
for the last two and a half years sitting there,
and when when when I think things just kicked my
toe into the wall and no get stripped now I
can read it now.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Very funny, inness, very very funny.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
Yeah, we love her.

Speaker 6 (05:41):
Yeah, I'm probably the six appeal.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
With Mali Special sixteen feet. I stick to them.

Speaker 6 (05:53):
They're like struction, which is which is amazing. I loved
it when I saw the animation and how big my
feet were because because I went, yeah, all such in
cups got to be.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
The music, the Tabaka's music is back in there. The
vista of colors, the sunsets, the sunrises, the sea monsters,
it's all in there. The drama and very emotional, very
emotional performance from the rock and only the you know
Moi and Moana just one you know again, I felt
that everyone's kind of lifted their game and gone beyond

(06:27):
a little bit and pushed it. I actually think the
second one's right up there.

Speaker 6 (06:31):
With the first one.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
I was to say, so, we took our kids last night,
and I've got a twelve year old that thinks she's
like a theater critic. And then she came out and said, Mom,
I actually think it was better than the first.

Speaker 7 (06:41):
Want to tell me, are you surprised how it comes together?

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Like obviously your comedy it runs through was a lot
of that organic or was it scripted or did things
turn up in the final idiot you were like, oh
my god, I can't believe that made it.

Speaker 6 (06:56):
The thing is that like you do what they actually write,
and then you do an option where they say, now
you would say, just as you these lines, how would
you do? What would you do? And that's where I'd
have fun and just cut loose and all of that
didn't make the.

Speaker 5 (07:19):
One for you.

Speaker 6 (07:20):
I should have guessed something was up because I noticed
that the read light wasn't on. Yeah, I just engineered
left and I was just there in front of a microphone.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
That it is more.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
It is honestly phenomenal. The songs get stuck and you
hear the story is beautiful, and honestly the animation is
next level as well.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
And you've made are so proud to have New Zealand.
I just infused in a Disney hit. Soank you.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
A key we filmed, so think it one last time
before we go, because this is all I could hear
last night from my two boys were driving home. Can
we get to see who?
