Though we’ve guessed for awhile that cuts were coming to Walt Disney World, it looks like the first round of cutbacks could be coming very soon to Disney’s Hollywood Studios in the very near future. However, the good news is rumors suggest that something new could be coming to this park in the near future as well!
Star Wars: A Galaxy Far Far Away could be coming to an end very soon
We’ve never been all that impressed the Star Wars A Galaxy Far, Far Away stage show, as this show has always felt like a temporary offering that quickly got Star Wars into Disney’s Hollywood Studios after the Lucasfilm acquisition. And though this show does (somehow) continue to draw crowds, rumors suggest that this show’s almost four year run could be coming to a close as soon as the end of this month.
Though this has not been confirmed yet, with Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge continuing to draw massive amounts of guests, there’s not really much of a need for this show any more, making this one cut that truly does make sense at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Character meet and greet roster getting slimmed down
Though Disney’s Hollywood Studios has over a dozen character meet and greets around the park, it looks like the lineup is getting a bit of a trip, as rumors suggest that the following characters will be getting the ax in the near future:
- Mike from Monsters Inc. (Walt Disney Presents)
- Bo Peep from Toy Story (Toy Story Land)
- Frozone from the Incredibles (Pixar Place)
No specific end date has been announced for these character meet and greets, but rumors seem to indicate that these characters will be going away very soon. However, there may be some good news amid all these cuts…
A new Star Wars show inside Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge could be in the works
While Star Wars: A Galaxy Far Far Away kind of feels like a galactic fashion show with no point or plot, it looks like Disney may be looking in to creating a stage show inside Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge that will take place on the Tie Fighter stage in the First Order area of the land.
While we don’t know how far this new offering is in development, this sounds like it will be a great addition to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, especially for guests dealing with long waits for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and wanting something new to do at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Though some may be sad about the rumored cuts coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, if these cuts are being made to free up budget space for something new inside Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge, it seems like a smart shift in budget.
