Disney4me Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 Man, Disney sure loves to keep us on our toes especially when it comes to the Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom As you know, earlier this year Disney rocked our worlds with the announcement of the new Villains land coming to Magic Kingdom, and now they’ve just shared with us which of the biggest and baddest villains are going to call the new land home. But amidst all the fanfare over the roster of baddies that’ll be there, there’s one very notable name missing, so you know we’ve gotta talk about it! As we were saying, Disney is going to bring to life the brand-new Villains Land to Magic Kingdom. We even know that it will be located essentially right behind Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. One of the things we didn’t know was which baddies would be calling this new land home. ©Disney Well, at D23 Brazil, Disney finally revealed which villains will be in the new land. Even though we don’t know how they’ll be featured, you won’t be disappointed by who’s on the list. Thanks to @omelete on X, we can see the Queen of Hearts, Jafar, the Evil Queen, Yzma, Cruella, Captain Hook, Maleficent, Gaston, Mother Gothel, Ursula, Hades, Chernabog, and Maleficent as a Dragon. ©omelete Now, by no means are we knocking this grouping of baddies. No, no, no. They’re definitely in a league of their own. That being said, if there’s any villain who could add some serious style and swagger to this cast, it’s Dr. Facilier, with his dark magic, slick moves, and unforgettable New Orleans vibe. That begs the question: why didn’t he make the cut for Villains Land? Dr. Facilier in EPCOT I mean, for many, Dr. Facilier’s absence stings even more because they were already disappointed when he didn’t make the cut for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Given that The Princess and the Frog is set in New Orleans, a city known for its mystery and magic, Dr. Facilier seemed like it would have been a perfect fit for the ride’s storyline. But instead, he was absent from the ride. What Is He Up To? With Villains Land on the way, many have been crossing their fingers that Dr. Facilier would finally get the recognition he deserves. He’s the kind of character who could easily have his own spooky ride or even a themed restaurant (could you imagine a “shadowy” speakeasy-style café?!). But alas, Disney’s official list doesn’t include him, which has many wondering why the studio keeps leaving out one of their most stylish and mysterious villains. Dr. Facilier I guess it all highlights a bigger question about how Disney picks and chooses which villains get the spotlight. Characters like Maleficent, Ursula, and Captain Hook make sense as they’re some of the most well-known and long-standing villains in Disney’s repertoire. But as Disney expands its theme parks to include a new generation of fans, there’s has to be enough room to bring in villains like Facilier, who embody the cool, modern vibe that today’s audiences love. Dr. Facilier Who knows. Maybe Disney’s keeping a Dr. Facilier announcement close to the vest to surprise us later, but until then, we’ll have to keep rooting for Dr. Facilier from the sidelines. In the meantime, we’re always on the lookout for the latest Disney news, so stay tuned for more.
