Villainland is phase 2. Any number of IPs can wind up as phase 2 instead.

DSNY also beat him to the punch with Poppins if I remember correctly.

Exactly, also wasn't the cars land rumour on here a while ago?

So is he claiming that the southern half of Frontierland will become New Orleans Square?

If Cars Land is considered for WDW, it should go in DHS.
Cars is a pretty terrible fit for MK even if the aesthetics might be reasonable next to Frontierland. Coco is a far better option.

"Desert land" doesn't make sense. Yes, Big Thunder and Radiator Springs have the same landscape but they do not fit together at all.
I may be alone on this but I happen to like it. It’s just a ride - not a land. (If even true). Also I think it’s such a fun fun ride- one of my favorites in California. Fun is what I’m here for so count me as positively intrigued.

This tracks with what my source told me a few months ago about a mystery IP that would not fit in MK—Cars. I'll bet that's what it was, and my source told me that it was very close to being greenlit back in December.
Last I heard was MK Coco, Cars and Moana. No phase 2 until they flesh out Frontierland conversion. DHS Monsters and Villains.
But we'll see.

Brayden has reported the following, again and I have stressed this before but no one seems to read it. I am not saying Brayden is credible I’m just posting this here as he has gotten things right in the past.
- Frontierland gone turned into Bayou (separate land from desert)
- Desert land features Radiator Springs Racers
- Big Thunder Mountain worked into the new desert land
- Rivers of America on the chopping block
- WDW Railroad will be effected in some way
- Tom Sayer Island is gone and is turned into a Woody Roundup Attraction
- Villians Land behind Haunted Mansion with at least 1 e ticket and 1 d ticket
- Country Bears opening in August
- Haunted Mansion Restaurant cancelled
Some of this seems plausible.

What is a “bayou desert land?” Did the salt mine explode in a natural catastrophe and kill off the verdant vegetation?

The bayou and the desert land are two different things not one land.
Bayou takes over and kills Frontierland up till Tiana’s. Desert land is BTM and beyond.
EDIT: Apologies on wording I made it more clear.

I don’t necessarily believe this is happening, but I also don’t think it would be so far-fetched for Disney to retheme a land based on western expansion in the U.S. to one just themed to the western U.S. with no ties to any particular time period. I definitely prefer that approach to them scrapping Frontierland entirely and replacing it with various single IP lands.
These have all been mentioned before as possibilities by our insiders -- except a "bayou desert land" (??!!??)
Anyhoo, we know execs were casing out Pecos Bill.
Lotta ingredients here... don't know which ones will make it into the pot.

I really hope. It would be a good option for the current Animation building plot (and backstage in that area).

I wrote that wrong I corrected it.
The bayou and desert are two separate things.
