What's Happening:
- Disney Parks and Walt Disney Imagineering have teased the next episode in their popular series, We Call It Imagineering, and this one seems to be a big...adventure.
- Without outright saying it, while famous Walt Disney quotes and audio tied to the series plays, the tease also features imagery of many of the details and spaces featured aboard the new Disney Adventure - the newest and largest ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet.
- We also get glimpses or rehearsals, show control booth, pyrotechnic loading procedures, and more - seemingly promising a behind-the-scenes look at the live entertainment that will be featured aboard the new ship, which makes its maiden voyage on March 10 - the same day that this episode will debut.
- Along with those looks, we also get quick glimpses of Ironcycle Test Run and Groot's Galaxy Spin - two full attractions (the former being the largest roller coaster at sea) that are featured on board the new ship.
- Take a look at the tease below.
- It seems that this episode will deal solely with the new Disney Adventure, and will be a fascinating watch. Why? Because the ship wasn't always owned by the Walt Disney Company.
- Originally dubbed the Global Dream for Genting Hong Kong’s Dream Cruises, the ship's construction started in 2016 before being halted in 2018 as financial issues took hold of its parent company.
- By 2022, negotiations had finished and Disney purchased the ship mid-build for (relatively speaking) pennies on the dollar for a mere $40 million. Disney further sank an additional $1.8 billion into the venture, which was reportedly twice as much as originally planned.
- The unique backstory of this particular ship and what Walt Disney Imagineering has done to the vessel will surely make this episode one of the more fascinating in the series.
