If Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson says it's OK to sing in the cinema... is it?

Disney star Dwayne Johnson, who plays Maui in Moana 2, has said people should be allowed to sing along with movies they are watching in the cinema.

"Sing!" he told 大象传媒 News at the premiere of the hit movie sequel.

"You鈥檝e paid your hard earned money for a ticket, and you've gone into a musical, and you鈥檙e into it. Sing," he added.

It comes after moviegoers in the United States have been asked not to join in with the actors during screenings of Wicked, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo.

Bosses at AMC Theatres have had to remind people to respect others when watching the film, and they "prohibit disruptive behaviour".

What do you think? Should you be able to enjoy the film in any way you want, even if it means possibly disrupting others?

Or would you welcome someone singing along and enjoying themselves in the cinema next to you?

Many cinema chains have said there will be sing-a-long screenings of Wicked later in the year so those with a passion for hitting the high notes can do so without the possibility of irritating other customers.

The hit musical film already had a huge fan base due to the hit Broadway show, which premiered over 20 years ago.

Moana fans have been excited to see what she gets up to in the sequel, and they don't have to wait much longer, with the film reaching cinemas on Friday 29 November.
