Fantasmic! is back on the park map in the MDE app, complete with a new look.
Sorcerer Mickey looks awesome as always!
Saw a tweet about it by BlogMickey so had to check it out for myself — this ain’t much, but it somewhat adds credibility for its potential return soon

Looks like the image of Mickey was taken from the UK/European Blu-ray release of Fantasia

I think it's also an effort to make it clearer where Fantasmic is. The old MGM Studios map had Mickey and the dragon where the show was, with the show description next to it:
The most recent map was more accurate to Google Earth, but a bunch of benches next to a lake and some rocks doesn't mean much if you don't know about the show. Bringing back Mickey and fireworks makes it clearer that...this is where the Mickey Fireworks show is.

These aren't the updates you’re looking for.

They polished Mickey's shoes

Lol I’m probably reading to much into that map image thinking there could be new lighting and new updated fountains.

I do think they updated the lighting fixtures! Probably switched to led stuff.

I gotta see Mickey fight the evil forces of covid-19 in this nightmare Fantasmic!

Perhaps since they drained the Fantasmic waterway... they had some spare moving fountains around and can swap out for the fountains they use at Disneyland...

Perhaps parts from a former DAK nighttime show?

I forgot about that! They definitely have stock sitting around. The cost would be labour to install, and labour for programming. And I would assume they’d need to upgrade some software to integrate them into the show...

Do whatever you want with the show... Just don't change the masterpiece that is the preshow music.

This shows how long it's been since I've seen the show, did they do away with the DJ? The last time I was there, they had a DJ playing pop music. Wasn't a fan.
I did enjoy the loop before they had a DJ, then again, remember when they had actual entertainers before the show?

Maybe it'll just be one CM in a Mickey Costume doing interpretive dance during projections and a few fireworks!
It will be renamed: Distancic!

There's no more DJ and no actual "pre-show" now. What I'm talking about is they absolutely need to keep the classic early-to-mid 2000's Disney Channel remixes and songs that are played while everyone's waiting for the show to start. It's a huge nostalgia trip and even today are still a lot of fun to listen to. Thankfully, in recent weeks while the Fantasmic queue has been used for ToT's extended queue, they have been testing the music and it's still the remixes.

I mean sure!
They can also run the rain version of the show, A Taste of Fantasmic!.
It doesn’t require much of the cast members in close quarters backstage and it’s less than 15 minutes long.

They can do what they want with the middle of the show, replace Pocahontas with Moana/Tangle, etc. But From the climax on don't touch a thing.
