I heard WDAS is working on the animation for the screen sections of the ride. They just demonstrated a few scenes to Team Disney Shanghai.

I don't think this idea is bad, but it looks a bit overpowering. Hopefully Disney can execute it well, but for now, I am not getting my hopes up.

I'm sure there are a few forum members here that are beside themselves in anticipation.

Did they announce any attractions for the new land?

The full Disney Parks Blog article (I’ve highlighted a few of the key points in case anyone can’t be bothered to read the whole thing )

Today, Shanghai Disney Resort announced that a “Zootopia”-themed land is coming to Shanghai Disneyland, marking the second major expansion since the resort opened in 2016. Based on the Walt Disney Animation Studios’ hit animated movie, this exciting development will be the park’s eighth themed land and the first-ever “Zootopia”-themed land at any Disney park.

Guests will be invited to experience the mammalian metropolis of Zootopia “where anyone can be anything,” with a new major attraction that will seamlessly blend Disney storytelling and state-of-the-art technology to bring this fan-favorite movie and its characters to life – including Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. Entertainment, merchandise, and food and beverage offerings will invite guests to fully immerse themselves in the Academy-Award-winning animated movie.

The development of the world’s first “Zootopia”-themed land follows the huge success of the “Zootopia” animated movie globally, particularly in China where it broke box office records to become the country’s No. 1 animated feature film in history.

Construction is targeted to begin later this year! As always, keep your eyes on the Disney Parks Blog for more exciting updates all the way from Shanghai Disney Resort.

They said one brand new attraction that will combine Disney storytelling and state-of-the-art technology. It also mentioned merchandise, a restaurant, and of course a M&G for Judy and Nick.

Where is this new land? Is this replacing pooh due to political conflict or will they use the area that was supposed to be Everest?

I think it's in the Everest plot

Very happy with this announcement. With all the massive investments in the other resorts, Shanghai was the only one left without major expansion plans.

I really hope so too. Maybe a little mini-land at DHS?

Yikes. Not even fair Asia gets all the Zootopia love. I’d absolutely kill to have this come in at WDW. Anywhere, I don’t even care if it fits the theme of the park or not.

You go ahead and do that. We Zootopia fans are tired of getting talked down to on these boards. The movie is Disney’s second highest money making animation behind Frozen(source: https://www.boxofficemojo.com/franchises/chart/?id=disneyanimation.htm ). There’s no reason not to have representation somewhere here in Florida.
