Josh D’Amaro Includes ‘Black Panther’ Wakanda as Potential Disney Parks Expansion
D’Amaro also referenced “Coco,” “Encanto,” and “Zootopia.” “Encanto” is set to be part of the Tropical Americas-themed land replacing DinoLand U.S.A. Also as part of that update, DINOSAUR would become an Indiana Jones ride. “It’s Tough to be a Bug” is set to be replaced with a “Zootopia” show. “Coco” was included in the original “Beyond Big Thunder Mountain Railroad” concept art.
A Wakanda area could be an expansion to Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure or an addition to a Walt Disney World theme park like Disney’s Animal Kingdom or Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Disneyland Resort is also working with California on the DisneylandForward initiative with hopes of building another theme park, skyliner, new retail locations, and more hotels. Wakanda could also be added to an international park.
*I would put WDW options as unlikely unless they choose to not include the character of Black Panther since Universal has the rights East of the Mississippi.
