More Star Wars at Disney Hollywood Studios?

Postby KeithS » Sun Jun 15, 2014 11:15 am

If rumours are true, both The American Idol Experience and the Indiana Jones Stunt Show will close at the end of 2014 to make way for an expanded Star Wars land - with construction to commence in 2015.

I actually think this rumour has legs - if you include Star Tours current proximity to Indy and Idol, it would be easy to convert the entire south east side of Disney Hollywood Studios into a Star Wars land - I guess time will tell.

There has been talk of this for quite some time around the webs, and I think its a great idea. I doubt I'd have spent time at either of those shows and a Star Wars land sounds amazing.

You can never have too much Star Wars, and given Disney's heavy investment in the franchise going forward, I think it's ideal.
2023 Disneyland, Walt Disney World, Disney Cruise Lines - Disney Wish. Going to be awesome to be back!

Disney have confirmed that American Idol is closing in January, but deny that Indiana Jones Stunt show is closing. I still think it is a done deal and they are just waiting for budgets and the right timing to make an announcement - maybe the next D23 or something like that as it will be a HUGE announcement.
