Well, it’s been a HUGE day for Disney Parks announcements.
D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event is underway, which means we’re getting a ton of new announcements from Disney about everything from movies to TV shows to future plans for Disney Parks. Well, we’ve now got ANOTHER huge update to share and it’s all about Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Disney World.
Disney just announced that a brand new land is coming to Hollywood Studios, and it’s themed to Monsters, Inc.! During the Disney Experiences showcase, it was announced that the new land will pick up after the events of the original movie, and you’ll even be able to visit the iconic factory itself.
But that’s not all! “The first time I saw Monsters, Inc., all I wanted to do was ride on one of those doors like Mike and Sulley,” Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro told the crowd. “You’ll go into the factory and experience the first suspended coaster ever in a Disney park. Remember in the movie how those claws grab the doors and hoist them up into the air to take them away? We’re doing that, too. And you’re going along for the ride.”
A new land AND a new coaster?! Work on this project is expected to start next year. We’ll make sure to keep you updated with any additional details.
Wow — that’s a lot to take in, isn’t it? We’ll be covering ALL the big announcements from D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, so check back with AllEars again soon for more.
