I've been trying to figure that out, but I can't find anything online that says.

Wikipedia says 20th Century Studios Animation but I'm hoping to get a more solid source than that. Wouldn't be surprised if they did work on it (they did the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Disney+ stuff) ((edit: wait no they don't even have an in house studio)) but I don't think Pixar/DAS are doing that either, also just relatively shocked Disney is even continuing it.

Circling back to Fiege being at D23 Brazil, I wonder if it's to announce an Expansion for Avengers Campus at DCA in addition to an opening timeline for Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab. Since no production appears to be on the horizon for the Hyperion ever again, Perhaps it will go for a 5th Avengers Campus attraction assuming Avatar only takes over the backlot portion of HL.

It’s unlikely that they will announce anything for DCA as Brazil is more WDW focused. Coupled with the comments regarding controversial, I wonder if they will decide to pull the trigger on something Marvel related for Epcot 🙈

Prehaps. But I am still holding out hope if rumors are correct that UOR is developing a replacement for MSHI, DHS will get a proper Avengers Campus like area.

I don’t think he’s there for parks at all. Marvel themselves have a big panel coming up where there’s tons of rumors on what’s being announced/shown from the MCU.

I’ll be real, Brazil always felt like a bizarre pavilion choice when you have things like Greece, Egypt, India, and Australia waiting in the wings.

I think it makes about as much sense as any of those countries if not a little more than some as there is currently no representation of South America. It would, of course, depend what they do with it and all indications were that it would have just been retail and dining, which is disappointing and doesn't add that much to WS. On that note, it would also kind of depend on if they felt a Brazilian restaurant could have made money, and I suspect it is a cuisine that isn't too 'exotic' for the mainstream visitors while possibly attracting the large numbers of Brazilian visitors wanting to see the Epcot take on their home country's cuisine.

That said, I think all those countries could potentially make great pavilions. I don't think we'll see any of them in our lifetimes, though.

A traditional Brazilian steakhouse would do extremely well. It would be buffet style where they bring the steaks to your table and carve them onto your plate, while they have other items at the buffet. They could charge high prices and it still be a popular destination. Heck, make it character dining with The Three Caballeros and let Miguel take Donald’s place in Mexico.

Going off yesterday's panel, this is probably largely going to be updates on the previously announced stuff with maybe one surprise. Where Monsters is going is probably the big question answered today.

Don't think they will do any Brazil-specific pandering. If they did it would be Disney Cruises making an expansion down there, with the true wildcards being Brazil pavilion or GFTv2. But they'll probably stick at just making a Brazilian tourist joke.

Was HSM even ever shown in Brazil? Would be a rather deep cut for merch at D23 even if so...

Yes, it was, with good ratings, but the viewer didn't identify with it very much. D even managed to produce an adaptation closer to the reality of Brazilian schools, it was OK but it didn't really stick either.
