News New Play Pavilion to replace Epcot's Wonders of Life

[teddisney]

That was my assumption...

Is this a Zootopia nod?

Now it’s “out”....

The interior will be one huge IP driven playground. I’m aware of three core IPs. If all goes to plan one forum member in particular will be happy. Don’t think attractions as such. More like environments. Expect F&B to be added too. And digital interaction. Work should begin before the fall.

By "one forum member in particular" are you by any chance mentioning that person that is in love with Zootopia? I have no idea why I'm getting some kind of Zootopia vibe with this...

I’m saying nothing more for now.

I think i see Joy from Inside Out (right side above the Hotel) and possibly Edna Mode from Incredibles (far left).

Can't get mad at this. WoL is a dead pavilion anyways so it's better to have something in it then nothing.

Trying to figure out what the face at the back left is supposed to be?

Zootopia, Wreck it Ralph and Inside Out? Just judging from what we can see in the art, plus what "one forum member" might be very happy about.

But we can also see Olaf, Tinker Bell, Edna Mode, Sleeping Beauty(?), Mickey and Marie from the Aristocats so, I guess they could be anything.

Hotel???? Are they putting a hotel in between WoL and M:S?

The cat? I thought it was Marie from the Aristocats. Or what looks like Edna Mode?

Almost looks like

Middle right above the building it says WEDWAY!

I like it, hopefully there's things for both adults and kids to do, and not just be designed for kids.

Some on twitter are complaining that it's taking up the old WoL pavilion but WoL was never coming back, so not sure what they were expecting

Is that what's her name from Aristocats? The white kitty that meets (or used to) at the front of MK sometimes.

This actually seems really fun and I love the idea of so many different IP's under one roof interacting; it's something I enjoy most about the parks. Can't wait to find out more about it.

 

[Coaster Lover]

Any insiders know if the current "plans" utilize the Cranium Command and Body Wars section of this building or are these areas left untouched for potential future rides/shows?

 

[ToTBellHop]

I like this use for the space and it clears out the need for Innoventions. I think this will actually be fun. It looks like it will be visually appealing.

And, it looks like Rocket Raccoon on the right under the Hotel sign. [Edit: that's Nick from Zootopia, my bad!]

And, I think the kid in the front middle is flying a toy Buzz Lightyear with his left hand.

I wonder if they are gonna put flat rides in this, either way I'm for it. Better than a dead pavilion almost year long!
