A brand-new Lion King attraction is coming to Disney's resort in Paris, the entertainment giant has announced.
Axar.az reports that visitors will "go on a journey through the African savanna" alongside iconic characters from Mufasa and Simba to Timon and Pumbaa, theme park chief Josh D’Amaro said on Saturday.
Mock-ups of the experience, presented to Disney fans at the D23 convention on Saturday, showed a log flume plummeting down Pride Rock as Rafiki the monkey watches on.
The news comes just three days after Disney reported weaker-than-expected theme park results for the quarter that ended in June.
A Lion King experience has been rumored for the Disneyland Paris resort in Marne-la-Vallée since 2022.
Disney announced last year that it planned to spend $60 billion (£47 billion) over the next decade to expand its theme park and cruise businesses, double the amount spent over the previous decade, prompting excitement from fans.
Bosses have now confirmed that the Lion King-themed land will follow World of Frozen, a themed area based on the Frozen franchise that is due to launch in 2026 in Paris.
