Disney4me Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 There is almost always something going on with The Walt Disney Company! ©The Walt Disney Company Right now they are working on Disneyland’s 70th anniversary celebrations, major overhauls at Magic Kingdom, and more! It can be a lot to keep to keep up with so we’re doing a round-up of the 3 biggest new stories from this week right here. When it comes to Disney news, some weeks are bigger than others! This week falls into that “big week” category! Disney’s most recent Shareholder Meeting was March 20th, 2025 and it brought up two of the most exciting updates this week. The first is the major announcement that Coco 2 is finally in the works! ©Disney Disney didn’t release any of the plot details but they did confirm that the first movie’s team will be reunited including director Lee Unkrich and co-director Adrian Molina with Mark Nielsen producing. Initially, Disney shared that the movie wouldn’t be released until 2029, however, that language has since been removed from all press releases and posts. ©Disney Disney also has plans for a Coco attraction in Disney California Adventure and they included a Coco restaurant on the brand-new Disney Cruise Line ship, the Disney Treasure. While we do think the new ride will open before the movie comes out, we’re hoping we’ll get more movie news sooner rather than later! Read everything we know about Coco 2 here! The second major announcement to come out of the shareholder meeting was we finally got a new sneak peek at the new Lion King attraction! ©Disney This new attraction is coming to Disneyland Paris and is expected to open in 2026! The attraction was first announced at D23 in 2024. We got a glimpse at the model for the ride during the meeting and it has us pretty excited. The ride will take guests on Simba’s journey from the film going from lion cub to king! ©Disney The ride seems to be a long flume ride similar to Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Splash Mountain but Disney has yet to officially confirm. We’re eager to see how this attraction comes to life before it opens next year. Learn more about the new attraction! Finally, this week we said goodbye to It’s Tough To Be A Bug In Disney World. This show took place inside the Tree of Life at Animal Kingdom and was an opening-day attraction. Bye, Flik! The show was inspired by the film Bug’s Life and it followed Flik and his bug friends as they taught us just how hard it is to be a bug. The show was closed to make way for the brand new show called Zootopia: Better Zoogether. The show will follow Nick Wilde and Juddy Hopps as they take you through different biomes seen in the film Zootopia! ©Disney Disney already has removed the signage for It’s Tough To Be A Bug, taken the show off the Animal Kingdom park map, and filed permits for changes to the theater. While we’re excited about the change, we will mourn Flik and his friends! Learn more about Zootopia: Better Zoogether here! We also want to give a small shoutout to the Figment news from this week as well. During the shareholder meeting, Disney CEO Bob Iger shared that he is asking creative teams at Disney for more short form content of EPCOT’s purple dragon which we think is hilarious and exciting.
