Overview
- At a shareholder meeting, Josh D’Amaro said he had nothing new to announce on Figment and added that Disney is always exploring new ways for guests to engage with the character.
- The vague response drew disappointment from Figment fans who want clearer plans for the character’s future.
- Figment remains visible in the parks through EPCOT meet-and-greets, high-demand Festival of the Arts merchandise such as the popcorn bucket, and his long-running Journey Into Imagination attraction.
- Fans and commentators are urging a modernization of Journey Into Imagination, unchanged since 2002, with many also calling for Dreamfinder’s return.
- Previous efforts to expand the IP beyond the parks have been limited to Pixar cameos, and a reported Seth Rogen–led film has not advanced publicly.
