The Mandalorian has taken the Star Wars fandom by storm over the past few years! ©Disney The show currently has two seasons out on Disney+, and has massive amounts of merchandise (and a pretty huge fan base!), especially for a certain little green friend. Disney recently revealed the timeline of Season 3’s release at the annual Star Wars Celebration event, but it’s looking like that won’t be the end of Mando and Baby Yoda’s story! Cinemablend spoke with Jon Favreau, the creator of the show, who revealed that Season 4 is currently in the works! Isn’t he just adorable ©Disney The season is still in the early phases, but according to Favreau, they’re writing it as other Star Wars series come together. And, much like Mando’s story was intertwined with Boba Fett in Disney’s The Book of Boba Fett, it sounds like other shows like Ahsoka will be tying into the newest season. In fact, Favreau said, “So now, as Dave [Filoni]’s doing Ahsoka, it’s very much informing the writing that I’m doing for [The Mandalorian] Season 4. It becomes – how should I put it – more precise.” The Mandalorian ©Disney Favreau also revealed that writing the script for The Mandalorian isn’t as simple as it once was. When asked about potential crossovers in future episodes, Favreau said “determinations are wholly being made organically at this point” and explained everything that goes into writing up a script and making those choices nowadays. He shared: ©Cinemablend And, if you’re hoping to someday watch Mando’s story unfold on the big screen instead of your TV, the Force has heard you. Recently Pedro Pascal (who plays The Mandalorian) was asked what he thought about The Mandalorian being made into a feature film someday. His response? He thinks it’s inevitable. Of course, that’s just Pascal’s thoughts on the matter, but we do at least know that the character will be back again for a Season 4! And, before we get too far ahead of ourselves, don’t forget that Season 3 of The Mandalorian is set to arrive to Disney+ in February of 2023.

We’ve been gearing up for MONTHS for one big show on Disney+, and now it’s finally here! ©Disney Star Wars fans around the world have been waiting for the release of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, and we’ve been pretty pumped too, thanks to the trailers, the new merchandise, and all the hype that the show got at this past weekend’s Star Wars Celebration event. But the fanbase for the show is most evident in the statistics, and its premiere is already breaking some big records! Disney+ announced on Twitter that Obi-Wan Kenobi is officially the most-watched premiere of an original series on the streaming platform. This record is based on hours watched during the opening weekend. The show premiered on May 27th with the first two episodes released. The series as both a sequel and a prequel, bridging the gap between Star Wars films 1-3 and 4-6. It follows the adventures of beloved Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi as he’s hunted by the Empire and his former padawan, Anakin Skywalker (who is now Darth Vader). ©Lucasfilm It’s the show that prequel fans have been especially excited for, considering Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christiansen are returning to reprise their roles. McGregor describes the feeling of the show as very cohesive, saying “because Deb directed them all and it’s her singular vision throughout, it did feel like we were just making one movie.” We can’t wait to watch the story play out in the coming weeks! ©Lucasfilm It’s a huge milestone for Disney+, but we have a feeling this upcoming month is going to be a big one for the streaming platform anyway. Along with more episodes of this series, they’ve also got the premiere of Ms. Marvel scheduled for June 8th and Baymax on June 29th. On top of that, there are several other titles arriving that subscribers will want to check out! Click Here to See What’s Coming to Disney+ in June!

One of Disney World’s newest shows has already changed in a major way! Look at Simba fly! Disney KiteTails, the show featuring giant kites from The Lion King or The Jungle Book, debuted in October 2021 in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Despite being less than a year old, Disney recently announced plans to change the show, which resulted in shorter but more frequent shows. Now we have a few more details about this change so that you can be sure to catch KiteTails during your next visit! Not long ago, KiteTails switched to walk-by viewing rather than seated showtimes in the Discovery River Amphitheater. You can now catch your favorite kites from several spots around the Discovery River Lagoon more frequently, but there are no set showtimes, and there is no longer a pre-show. Simba is still in the NEW version of KiteTails We recently spoke with a Cast Member about this new form of KiteTails and we were told that you can generally catch snippets of what used to be the full KiteTails show every 20 minutes around the Discovery River Lagoon daily between 9:10AM and 3:10PM. During our recent visit, we observed performances that were around 5 minutes or less, but they were basically mini versions of the previous show (which was around 10 minutes long). ©Disney Most of the guests in the area stood around the water to catch the shows but you can still sit in the Discovery River Amphitheater for the shortened performances. We still heard favorite tunes like “Hakuna Matata!” Hey Simba and Pumbaa! If you’re hoping to catch a KiteTails performance, you can expect to see one every 20 minutes or so around the Discovery River Lagoon! Keep following DFB for more Disney news and updates!

It’s not uncommon for rides to randomly close in the Disney parks! Magic Kingdom Typically, when this happens, there’s a pretty valid reason. We often see outdoor attractions close in inclement weather, rides shut down for refurbishments, or even the occasional technical difficulties. But, there’s one Magic Kingdom ride that seems to be closed more often than many others! When we stopped by Tomorrowland recently, we found that the PeopleMover was unexpectedly closed. There weren’t any storm clouds in the sky or scheduled refurbishments, so we spoke to the Cast Members to see what was going on. It was closed! We were told that the ride randomly shut down and that they have since had trouble getting it to come back up. They thought it was likely that the PeopleMover would remain closed all day, so you may have to wait until your next visit to ride this popular attraction. It may not come back up today. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this happen…in fact, this ride closes a LOT. There have been many times when we were riding that it has stopped and the attraction lights have come on. And in the past few months, we’ve seen multiple evacuations! PeopleMover Evacuation But that’s not all of the PeopleMover drama! It actually went through a pretty lengthy refurbishment when the parks reopened, and it was closed for over a year. After such a long closure, it’s almost surprising that the ride breaks down as much as it does. So if this is a high priority for you, you might want to consider riding early in the day — then you may have a better chance of hopping on before it pitches a fit. Being evacuated from the PeopleMover Even if you’re on board when it breaks down, there’s a solid chance you could get evacuated (this is one of the more commonly evacuated rides). For some Disney fans, that’s a dream come true! But if you hope to ride it all the way through, we recommend hitting this one first thing in the morning if it’s on your must-do list.

Disney+ has been releasing (and announcing) countless original series based on franchises like Marvel and Star Wars, which may be the reason why the platform’s subscriber count has increased by 33% within the past year.

Here’s what was released on last year’s Disney+ Day: Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (for free) Jungle Cruise (for free) Olaf Presents The Making of Happier than Ever: A Love Letter to Los Angeles Marvel Assembled: The Making of Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings Marvel Studios Legends: Hawkeye Fan favorite shorts from Walt Disney Animation Studios including Frozen Fever, Oscar-winning shorts Feast and Paperman, Oscar-nominated Mickey Mouse short Get A Horse! and more Ciao Alberto A new short from The Simpsons that paid tribute to Disney+’s marquee brands The first five episodes from season two of The World According to Jeff Goldblum from National Geographic A special celebrating the origins and legacy of Star Wars’ legendary bounty hunter, Boba Fett A special celebrating the Marvel Cinematic Universe on Disney+ with an exciting look towards the future Dopesick So mark your calendars, because Disney+ Day will likely bring a ton of premieres!

If you’ve been hoping to get a Magic Key pass (a.k.a. Annual Pass) for Disneyland, you may be out of luck at the moment. Exclusive Magic Key Lounge Back in October of 2021, the Dream Key (Disneyland’s most expensive Magic Key) sold out. In November of 2021, the next most expensive pass (the Believe Key) sold out. Now, things with the Magic Key program have CHANGED again. When we visited the Disneyland website today, we saw that the Dream Key… ©Disney … and Believe Key are listed as “currently unavailable.” That’s not necessarily new given that both passes had previously sold out. ©Disney What does appear to be new, however, is that the Enchant Key is also now listed as “currently unavailable.” ©Disney The Imagine Key is typically available only for Southern California Residents living in zip codes 90000 to 93599. Online, this pass does not yet have the “currently unavailable” marker next to it yet. However, we were able to chat with a Disneyland Cast Member who confirmed that ALL Magic Key passes, including the Imagine Key, are unavailable at this time. ©Disney So, ALL Magic Key passes are currently unavailable at Disneyland. It appears Disney has paused the sales for these Magic Key passes at the moment, not unlike how it has paused sales of nearly all Annual Passes at Walt Disney World back in November of 2021. ©Disney We will continue to keep an eye out for more details on this situation. For the moment, it appears guests will be unable to buy Magic Key passes at any level. Guests who have an existing Magic Key pass, however, will be given the chance to renew. When we chatted with a Cast Member, they said “This summer, we will offer all current Magic Key holders who are in the renewal window the opportunity to renew into one of several passes available in the program. We will share details about renewals at a later date.” Magic Key Lounge Regular theme park tickets for Disneyland continue to be available for purchase, including some that are part of a special California Resident offer. ©Disney This pause in Annual Pass sales comes as the lawsuit against Disneyland regarding the Magic Key program and Park Passes was allowed to move forward on specific counts. We’ll continue to look for more updates on this situation and we’ll let you know what we find. To learn more about the Magic Key program, click here.

Here at DFB, we like to keep up with some of our favorite Disney celebrities. Magic Kingdom Whether they’re heading to the parks, starting new business ventures, or making guest appearances in our favorite shows and movies, we like to know what’s going on. But this week, we were caught completely off guard when we learned a fun fact about a Disney star that we didn’t know. Apparently, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is the “best prom date!” A few days ago, Instagram user @smilesweetsraccoon posted a series of photos from her prom. Like any other teen, she was dressed in her formal best for the occasion, but the thing that drew the attention of many was her date for the evening — a cardboard cutout of Dwayne Johnson! And just a few days later, The Rock actually shared the photos on his own Instagram account. The caption says that The Rock is the “best date a person could ask for,” and honestly, we have to agree! Based on the pictures alone, it’s clear that he dressed up nice for the occasion, posed for pictures, and even hung out with his date’s friends. You couldn’t ask for anything better! We love watching celebrities interact with their followers in these fun and unique ways, and this just made us even bigger fans of The Rock!
