Tui Waialiki is a supporting character in Disney's 2016 animated feature film, Moana. He is the village leader of Motunui, and the father of Moana. After losing a loved one to the seas, Tui developed aquaphobia, and forbade his people from journeying beyond Motunui's reef.

Tui Waialiki is a (former) supporting antagonist of the Disney animated feature film Moana. He is the jolly father of Moana and the Chief of Motunui.
The young heroine Moana wasn't always the only child seen onscreen. She had six brothers, including one brother who tormented her and another who was wise and supportive. In these versions, Moana was the best sailor among her brothers, but still overlooked by her father, Chief Tui.
Moana was briefly married to New Zealand politician and radio personality Willie Jackson, during which time she was known as Moana Maniapoto-Jackson; they divorced in 2001. In 2016, Moana was inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame.

Gramma Tala : But one day, the Heart will be found by someone who will journey beyond our reef, find Maui, deliver him across the great ocean to restore Te Fiti's Heart and save us all.
The latest character to join the Disney Princess franchise is Moana, the daughter of Motunui's chief Tui and Sina. Unlike other princesses, Moana's parents didn't have a prominent role in the story, but they are alive through her whole journey.
Birth. Māui is the son of Taranga, the wife of Makeatutara. He was a miraculous birth – his mother threw her premature infant into the sea wrapped in a tress of hair from her topknot (tikitiki) – hence Māui's full name is Māui-tikitiki-a-Taranga. Ocean spirits found and wrapped the child in seaweed and jellyfish.
Although Moana's relationship with Maui never extends beyond the platonic level in the film, and although he is a 1,000-year old demigod and she is a 16-year old human, a lot of fans of the film like to put her and Maui in a romantic pairing known as Hooked Wayfinder.
Though Moana is horrified, Tala reveals that she has the heart of Te Fiti in her possession and explains that the ocean chose Moana as the one capable of saving the world. Moana accepts the responsibility, and Tala shows her the way to Maui through a constellation resembling his fishhook.
Brother #1: The leader, much like his father, Chief Tui. Brother #2: The warrior. Brother #3: The artist/dreamer, and whom Moana feels closest to. Brother #4: Wakaroa, the easygoing lovable big guy.
As Tamatoa's evil plan is working, everyone arrives to prevent him from making a vow with Moana. As Maui breaks the villain's necklace and break the spell, Moana realized that Maui is her true love.
After her heart had been stolen by Maui, she became Te Kā, a demon of earth and fire and the main antagonist of the film. With Te Kā in her place, the islands that Te Fiti created were slowly consumed by a life-killing darkness that could only be vanquished by returning Te Fiti's heart to its rightful place.
Among the iwi of New Zealand, Hina is usually considered to be either the elder sister or the wife of Māui.
Chloe Auliʻi Cravalho (/aʊˈliːʔi krəˈvɑːljoʊ/; born November 22, 2000) is an American actress. She made her acting debut as the voice of the title character in the Disney animated musical film Moana (2016).
Tala gives Moana the heart of Te Fiti, which she has kept safe for her granddaughter ever since she was chosen by the ocean, and shows her that the darkness unleashed by Maui's theft is now consuming the island.
Although Moana is strong-willed, self-reliant, and brave, the film leaves out a little detail about her: her age. She is in her teens and is said to be around the age of sixteen years.
Moana is an only child. She attends school and is also learning everything there is to know about being a chief from her father.
