Star-Lord Makes Surprise Visit to Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland
The unannounced sighting points to Disney’s pop-up character play without signaling a move from his EPCOT base.
Overview
- Star-Lord was reported in Tomorrowland interacting with guests and dancing with Chip, based on a fan photo shared to KennythePirate and echoed by other coverage.
- He usually meets near Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT, with listed times of 11:25 a.m., 12:30 p.m., 2:10 p.m., and 3:10 p.m.
- Disney has announced no change to that EPCOT schedule, which means the Magic Kingdom sighting may be a one-off.
- The moment fits Disney’s pattern of limited-time characters, with the Easter Bunny at Magic Kingdom now and rare Earth Day appearances slated for Animal Kingdom.
- Marvel use at Walt Disney World is constrained by Universal’s rights in Florida, which makes a Guardians character showing up in Magic Kingdom especially unusual.
