Hollywood Studios

We have lots of construction updates, new Cast Member costumes and merchandise to discuss, so let’s get started!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios Construction Update

Skyliner Station

We noticed more of the walls were coming down around the new Hollywood Studios Skyliner Station in anticipation of the grand opening of Disney’s Skyliner Gondola System on September 29th!

Hollywood Boulevard

On a stroll down Hollywood Boulevard, we noticed several Cast Members were sporting new costumes!

New Cast Member Costumes

We spotted the Cast Members of the popcorn cart and the pretzel and churro cart by the Chinese Theater wearing these colorful new looks.

New Cast Member Costumes

Is it just us or are these new outfits reminiscent of the old Great Movie Ride Cast Member costumes? Although we’re still a bit bummed about The Great Movie Ride closing last year, we’re really looking forward to riding Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway which is taking over its place!

Chinese Theater

Speaking of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, we noticed a couple of new construction walls were in the front of the Chinese theater, just outside of the side doors.
