Just because we don't know details doesn't mean its not in development. We don't know much about the Bugs replacement either. Or Villains, which was just dumped on the Disney Parks Blog.
You mean they're bringing back the Power Rangers Street Show???
Those rumblings aren't remotely legitimate. IOA NEEDS a replacement for Lost Continent and could use one for Toon Lagoon, the Studios needs copious investment fast, and Universal has dramatically tightened it's belt and pulled back from investing anything at all. There are no projects announced for after EU, which is historically when you need to have new things opening in the preexisting parks to pull crowds. There is NO WAY Universal will give up a top notch IP it controls for next to nothing and get rid of one of the world's best attractions, all to create another area in which it needs to invest!
Villains has concept art and it's the kind of quick and easy character musical show the entertainment division can churn out quickly and often does.
I'm fairly sure both Ant-Man and Black Panther are off-limits in Florida.
That as well, they get around it with guardians. There are enough characters available to them that they could do it. But it would probably always feel lacking without spider-man,Ironman, etc
They can't use any characters associated with Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, or Spider-Man. Guardians got through a very narrow loophole because the current team is made up of D-Listers and was created after the Universal contract.
For the right price they would.
Hasn't Dr Strange appeared in the park though? And isn't there already fairly substantiated Wakanda rumors?
Strange is definitely on the table. He has done M&Gs (including Jollywood nights) and was featured in the nightly projection show for years.
Mark my words: if Incredibles doesn't go to Animation Courtyard, its going to Star Tours.
That's why I said Ant-Man haha. Seems suited for it. New technology that lets you shrink and grow with him as you fly around. But I don't know if Ant Man is available.

i. | East of The Mississippi - any other theme park is limited to using characters not currently being used by MCA at the time such other license is granted. [For purpose of this subsection and subsection iv, a character is “being used by MCA” if (x) it or another character of the same “family” (e.g., any member of THE FANTASTIC FOUR, THE AVENGERS or villains associated with a hero being used) is more than an incidental element of an attraction, is presented as a costumed character, or is more than an incidental element of the theming of a retail store or food facility; and, (y) in addition, if such character or another character from the same “family” is an element in any MCA marketing during the previous year. Any character who is only used as a costume character will not be considered to be “being used by MCA” unless it appears as more than an incidental element in MCA’s marketing.] |
People have the right to their opinion. I prefer not to judge people too harshly for having a different point of view, but to me hating everything about a brand but then spending large sums of money on their products anyway is a lot more weird than just loving a brand. I know some people here will say that makes them “real” fans but again…weird prospective. Even more weird to me are people who supposedly stopped going to WDW years ago because of the product but still post continuously on Disney fan boards.
