Directors reveal details of upcoming animated flick during Comic-Con 2016.

When Disney's Moana hits theater this fall, romance won't be a part of the storyline.

The Polynesian animated character will be the first Disney princess to not have a love interest, the film's directors John Musker and Ron Clements, confirmed on Thursday during a panel event at Comic-Con 2016.

"There is no romance in the movie," Musker said, explaining that Moana's story will focus on her own personal journey.
