Did you know that Disney is making another Haunted Mansion movie?! ©Disney Disney already made one Haunted Mansion movie in 2003 starring Eddie Murphy, but it wasn’t exactly what you would call a major hit. So, they’re trying it again! The new movie will come out in 2023. We’ve already seen a logo for the film, as well as found out plot and cast details. And now, we think we know who will playing one of the most legendary characters from the ride! Actress Jamie Lee Curtis appeared to confirm that she will be playing Madame Leota in the upcoming Haunted Mansion movie Disney is making! She posted the following on her Instagram page: All she put in the caption was an emoji of a crystal ball, so is that her confirming the news?! It certainly doesn’t seem like she’s denying it! Madame Leota Tombstone Jamie Lee Curtis is no stranger to starring in spooky films — she’s known for her lead role in the iconic Halloween films and has also done projects like the horror-comedy TV show Scream Queens. Via Vogue She is also the daughter of the original scream queen, Janet Leigh, who starred in Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho, which is widely considered the first slasher film in the horror genre. So, it’s safe to say that Jamie Lee Curtis knows spooky, and who better to play the legendary Madame Leota?! This also wouldn’t be the first time that Jamie Lee Curtis has worked with Disney. Remember Freaky Friday with her and Lindsay Lohan? It’s hard to forget Curtis completely crushing that guitar solo! @Disney Even though this seems like a confirmation that the actress will be in the new Haunted Mansion, a credit has not yet appeared on sites like IMDb, so we’ll keep an eye out for an official confirmation. The new Haunted Mansion film will star Owen Wilson, LaKeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson and more. ©Disney The premise of the movie is that a doctor and her 9-year-old son are looking to start a new life, so they move into a strangely affordable mansion in New Orleans. They soon discover that the place is MUCH more than they bargained for! Looking for help, they get in touch with a priest, who enlists the aid of a widowed scientist-turned failed-paranormal expert, a French Quarter psychic, and a crotchety historian. Haunted Mansion will be released in theaters on March 10th, 2023. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney entertainment news and updates!

Just when you think you know all there is to know about Disney World, something changes and there’s even more to learn! EPCOT There was a lot that happened in Disney World in July! The EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival started and we reviewed every single booth, Festival of the Lion King returned to its former glory at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and MagicBand+ was finally released! Now, we’re rounding up 11 things that we learned in Disney World during the month of July. MagicBand+ Details After accidentally releasing it early a few months ago, MagicBand+ debuted (officially this time) on June 27th in Disney World! We learned tons of information about the new bands like how much they cost, how to set them up, and about the features they have. MagicBand+ display in Magic Kingdom MagicBand+ starts at $34.99 and goes up in price from there for bands with more intricate designs. We also took our MagicBand+ to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios where we learned how to play Batuu Bounty Hunters, the scavenger hunt around Galaxy’s Edge. Click here to see the pros and cons of the new MagicBand+ BoardWalk Deli Disney announced that the BoardWalk Bakery at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn would be replaced by a new restaurant called BoardWalk Deli. The BoardWalk Bakery closed on July 25th to make way for the new restaurant. BoardWalk Bakery closed to make way for the NEW BoardWalk Deli We got the menu for the new BoardWalk Deli as well as a hint as to when it could open, though Disney hasn’t announced a specific opening date yet. Click here to see the latest construction updates from Disney’s BoardWalk! Cake Bake Shop Updates We know that a new restaurant would be coming to the BoardWalk as well, but we didn’t have many details about where it would be located or when it would open. We now know that the Cake Bake Shop will be located in the location of the former ESPN Club. ©The Cake Bake Shop via Instagram Based on the menus and pricing at other locations, we compiled a list of what the menu and pricing could look like at the Disney World location, too. Click here to read our interview with Gwendolyn Rogers — owner of the Cake Bake Shop! ‘Moana’ Attraction Updates EPCOT is currently undergoing a pretty massive transformation that includes the recent opening of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and the ongoing construction for the upcoming Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana attraction. We know that it is going to be a walk-through attraction that follows water’s journey through its cycle, but not much information is known after that. Recently, Imagineer Zach Riddley shared some concept art for the new attraction. ©Disney The concept art shows the water cycle from rainfall all the way until evaporation again. An official opening date hasn’t been shared, but we’ve been tracking the attraction’s construction progress and will be sure to keep an eye out for more details. Festival of Fantasy Changes The Festival of Fantasy parade can usually be caught twice per day in the Magic Kingdom, but in July, we learned that on four days in August, that will not be the case. Festival of Fantasy On August 4th, 6th, 8th, and 10th, you’ll only be able to catch the parade at 3PM rather than the usual 12PM and 3PM showtimes. Click here to see a full list of showtimes for Magic Kingdom! Car Locator Service Debuts The Car Locator Service in My Disney Experience debuted in July. Parking lot It’s a feature within the app that will record your car’s location in the parking lots at the theme parks, water parks, Disney Springs, and ESPN Wide World of Sports. You can put your car’s location in manually or allow it to automatically detect your car’s location through bluetooth and location services. Then at the end of your day, you don’t need to remember where your car is parked, all of the information you’ll need will be right there. Click here to see the car locator feature in action! Victoria & Albert’s Changes Victoria & Albert’s, one of the most exclusive and fancy dining experiences at Disney World returned on July 28th. Disney had said in the announcement of the reopening that changes would be coming to the restaurant, and in July, they shared more details about those changes. A new look inside the refurbished restaurant ©Disney The whole restaurant looks much different than before with a different color scheme and an overall lighter and brighter appearance. Click here for a first look at the changes coming to Victoria & Albert’s! More Meet and Greets Returned July also saw the return of lots of meet and greets.

Splash Mountain Re-Theme Details Disney announced several years ago that Splash Mountain will be re-themed to have characters from The Princess and the Frog, but didn’t provide much in the way of details until now. We now know that the new ride will be called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and it will open in late 2024. ©Disney We also got a sneak peek at what the ride, specifically Tiana, will look like! She has a whole new outfit and hairstyle. Click here for more details about the Splash Mountain re-theme! And those are 11 things we learned in Disney World in July!

This party will bring a fireworks show, a parade, trick-or-treat stations, and villainous meet-and-greets to Magic Kingdom, not to mention all the new treats and snacks! Halloween decorations to DIE for Besides all the candy that guests can collect throughout the park, there will be new snacks, treats, and drinks at various restaurants and kiosks throughout Magic Kingdom. Some of these locations will also have special souvenirs, including popcorn buckets and souvenir cups — and now we know exactly WHICH collectibles will be arriving in Disney World for the occasion. Check them out here! Disney has announced that the Glow Mickey Mummy Premium Popcorn Bucket will be returning this year, and it’ll be located at “various popcorn carts throughout the park.” This bucket will be available both during normal park hours and during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, so you can purchase one even if you’re not going to the party. (Remember that you must purchase a separate ticket to attend the Halloween Party.) Mickey Mummy Popcorn Bucket There’s also going to be a popcorn bucket themed to Zero — the ghostly dog from Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. We saw a Zero-themed popcorn bucket in Disneyland way back in 2014, so we don’t know if this year the bucket will look like that or if it’ll be a new design. This bucket will only be available during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, so you’ll need a ticket to the event if you want to buy it. It also won’t be available until early October (even though the party starts in August), when guests will be able to find it at various popcorn carts. Zero Popcorn Bucket | 2014 Guests can find a Donald Candy Corn Sipper (a souvenir cup) at several restaurants beginning in early October. This sipper will be located at Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Café, Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Café, The Friar’s Nook, and Sleepy Hollow Refreshments. It’ll be sold both during normal park hours and during the Halloween party. Sleepy Hollow Refreshments And finally, there will be a Halloween Candy Glow Cube available at Sunshine Tree Terrace. This one will be exclusively for guests at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Sunshine Tree Terrace This year, the Halloween party will take place on 37 nights between August 12th and October 31st. A couple of dates have already sold out, so make sure to get your tickets soon if you plan to go. Some of the special entertainment you can find at the party this year will include trick-or-treating throughout the park, Halloween overlays on some rides, a Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular, the Boo-To-You Parade, and Not-So-Spooky Spectacular Fireworks.

Is it just us, or has Disney been releasing TONS of new ears lately? Ears in Disney World We’ve seen SO MANY new pairs, like these Mickey Premium Bar Ears, these two pairs of ears that go with just about everything, and four brand new Halloween ears that were just released online! Now, there’s not one but two new pairs of ears in Disneyland. Let’s take a look at ’em. First up, we have these Purple Flower Ears! This pair has a light purple headband with ears that are dark purple and feature purple and white flowers. So pretty! The bow is purple and there’s actually two of them. There’s a smaller bow set on top of a larger bow that gives the ears a beautiful and unique layered look. These ears are VERY summery and so pretty! Up-close look We also spotted these incredibly intricate and detailed Princess Tiana White Lotus Flower Ears. They are white with gold detailing and lotus flowers on the ears themselves. The headband’s ears are white with gold piping around the outside and gold studs surrounding the flower. This is a unique take on Princess Tiana, because items that are inspired by her are often green where these are white and gold! Incredibly detailed! Instead of a bow in the center of the headband, these ears have a small bow with a huge white feather offset on the left side.The Princess and the Frog is set in the 1920s, so the feather is very on-brand for the time period. There is a small gold charm in the center of the bow. Closer look at the detail Both pairs of ears are $29.99 and we found them at World of Disney in Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort. Looking for more? You can check out every single pair of Minnie ears that you can get online right now by clicking here and you can see our running list of every single pair of Minnie ears released in Disney World this year so far here (spoiler alert: it’s a lot!).

At the very beginning of 2022, Disney’s Magical Express service was discontinued, meaning there is no longer a free option to get to and from Orlando International Airport and Disney World. ©The Sunshine Flyer There have been some replacement services though that cost money, like the Sunshine Flyer. This service started up in February with fun themed buses and some competitive pricing. Earlier this summer, we told you about a deal that the Sunshine Flyer was running, and that deal just got extended! To celebrate its first year of service, the Sunshine Flyer had a special deal happening — For all rides booked through July 31st, children ride for free and adults are only $16 each. And, the Sunshine Flyer just extended the promotion through Labor Day! Sunshine Flyer Labor Day is on Monday, September 5th this year, which means you’ve got a whole lot more time to save on rides to and from the Orlando International Airport! ©The Sunshine Flyer And, this promotion is for all rides BOOKED from now through Labor Day, the ride doesn’t actually have to take place in that time frame. ©The Sunshine Flyer Sunshine Flyer works similarly to Disney’s old Magical Express — the service will pick you up at the airport and then take you to your Disney World hotel. The biggest difference is that the Sunshine Flyer isn’t free like Magical Express was. ©The Sunshine Flyer So, book your ride now if you want to save! If you don’t want to use this service, your other options for getting to and from the airport and your Disney World hotel include Mears Connect (which is very similar to Sunshine Flyer), taking a rideshare service like Uber, or renting a car. There is no longer a free mode of transportation, unless you have a friend coming to pick you up! Mears Connect Transportation to Disney World can be tricky, and we also did find out recently that plans have changed for that train that was supposed to go from the airport to Disney Springs. You can read more about that here. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney World news and updates.

If you haven’t been to Disney World lately, get ready to face a HUGE number of changes. Peter Pan’s Flight Many character meet-and-greets have reopened, character dining is back to “normal” in many places, buffets are coming back to some spots, and there are lots of construction changes being made daily. Today we noticed another change made to a meet-and-greet area in Fantasyland. As we were walking through Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom, we noticed that Peter Pan was back at his more traditional meet-and-greet spot near Peter Pan’s Flight. He’s Back! Previously, we had seen Peter running around Fantasyland, meeting sometimes near the castle, and meeting other times near Adventureland. Peter Pan Running Around! While it was a bit complicated to see Peter before, Cast Members indicated that Peter has essentially returned to his regular Fantasyland spot, so you’ll want to check for him there during your next trip. Just remember that things are always subject to change. Peter Pan But, this meet-and-greet change isn’t the only new thing we noticed about the Peter Pan area today. If you look behind Peter Pan in this meet-and-greet spot in Fantasyland, you’ll see a map of Never Land. On the map, there are a variety of spots identified, such as Pirate’s Cove. But the name of one of the spots has changed. Taking a Look at the Map On the left-hand side of the map (when you’re facing it directly), there is a depiction of the Never Land Tribe area. That area was previously identified on the map as “Indian Camp.” That has since been changed and now this spot is identified as “Never Land Tribe.” Changed Name It appears this change is likely one example of the Walt Disney Company’s dedication to its newest key — the key of inclusion. Disney added this key to their principles back in 2020. At that time, they explained that the Key of Inclusion represents Disney’s commitment to “cultural transformation.” Disney also noted that the key would not just stand on its own but would be encouraged throughout all keys. ©Disney This also seems to align with some of the warnings and changes Disney has made to certain films on Disney+. Disney has placed disclaimers on certain movies on the streaming service, indicating that they have negative depictions and/or the mistreatment of people or cultures. Disney also removed certain titles containing these “negative depictions and/or mistreatment of people or cultures” from children’s accounts on Disney+. Back in 2021 when this took place, one of the movies removed was Peter Pan. This is one of the films that also has a warning regarding negative depictions and/or mistreatment of people or cultures when viewed on an adult account. ©Disney+ Other changes centered on inclusivity are on their way to Disney World, including the retheme of Splash Mountain. Disney has indicated that the new concept — which is a ride themed to The Princess and the Frog — is “inclusive – one that all of our guests can connect with and be inspired by, and it speaks to the diversity of the millions of people who visit our parks each year.” Princess and the Frog attraction Concept Art ©Disney We’ve also seen little details incorporated into the parks to showcase inclusivity, like the addition of a cochlear implant on a mannequin in EPCOT, or a mannequin sitting in a wheelchair. So cool! We’ll certainly be on the lookout for more changes throughout Disney World. To see the latest changes made to Disney World’s shopping policies, click here.

We LOVE a good surprise in Disney World. Princess Fairytale Hall TONS of character meet-and-greets have returned to Disney World and we’re back to hugging characters and getting autographs, but there are a few characters that are still missing — and sometimes Disney gives you a SECRET way to visit a rare character! If you want to visit Disney Princesses, you can typically meet Elena, Tiana, Rapunzel, and Cinderella at Princess Fairytale Hall in Magic Kingdom, but sometimes a special visiting princess is there instead! Today, we noticed a mystery princess was visiting alongside Cinderella and our curiosity got the best of us. After all, the standby wait time was only 35 minutes! Who’s the other princess?? We entered Fairytale Hall wondering who the mystery princess could be. We’ve seen Jasmine as well as Snow White visiting in the past, but could this be someone else? We had to find out The hall is filled with colorful portraits of Disney Princesses to view during your wait in line. Of course, you can also opt to use the Lightning Lane to bypass the standby line if you’ve purchased Genie+ for the day. Inside the queue When it comes to the portraits, we saw Tiana, Rapunzel… Tiana and Rapunzel …Snow White, Mulan… Snow White and Mulan …Aurora… Aurora …and Jasmine! Jasmine We finally reached the end of the line and we got to meet Cinderella first. She was as lovely as usual but then we finally made it to the surprise princess! Cinderella! Ta-da! It was ARIEL! Although this hasn’t always been the case, Ariel is currently one of the rarer character meet-and-greets in Disney World since her character meeting spot (Ariel’s Grotto) is still closed. You can meet other Disney Princesses in a variety of locations around Disney World, but Ariel isn’t often seen outside of parades right now. ARIEL!! We were SO excited to see her and we’re keeping our eyes peeled for any Disney announcements regarding Ariel’s Grotto. Recently, Merida and Peter Pan meet-and-greets returned to Magic Kingdom, so maybe Ariel’s turn is next! Peter Pan Until Ariel’s Grotto reopens, you may be able to catch her in the Princess Fairytale Hall. Keep following DFB for more Disney World news and updates!
