Disneyland fans may soon have the chance to immerse themselves in the magical world of Encanto, as the company explores the possibility of bringing the beloved animated film to life at the “Happiest Place on Earth.” Josh D’Amaro, Chairman of Disney Parks, teased the potential addition during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, hinting at an “endless stream of stories” that could be told at Disneyland, including those from Encanto, Frozen, Black Panther, and Coco.
Should Encanto come to Disneyland in some capacity, it wouldn’t be the first time guests encounter the Madrigals in the park. A face character for Bruno was among those guests could meet at Oogie Boogie Bash at Disney California Adventure in 2022, and a projection show featuring the song “We Don’t Talk about Bruno” played on the It’s a Small World façade for a while. Disneyland wouldn’t be the first Disney theme park to bring Encanto to life either. At Walt Disney World in Florida, plans were unveiled to transform Dinoland U.S.A. into a Mayan-themed Tropical Americas land featuring stories from Encanto and Indiana Jones.
Disney fans have long speculated about the new lands and attractions that could come to Disneyland as part of the Disneyland Forward expansion plans announced in 2021. Those discussions have intensified after the project received preliminary approval during an Anaheim City Council meeting earlier this month. Fans hope that rides and attractions based on “Tangled,” “Zootopia,” and “Tron” and expanded areas based on “Peter Pan” and “Toy Story” could also be in the works. However, Disney has already announced plans for an “Avatar” experience at the Anaheim-based resort.
The next steps in the Disneyland Forward expansion will likely be revealed during the D23 fan event on Aug. 9-11 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Tickets for the event have already sold out.
