Villains Land Site Work Advances at Magic Kingdom as Plans Grow

Overview

• Updated filings show the layout has changed since early 2026, including rerouted water systems, reworked utilities, and refined building outlines.
• Plans now include at least two major show buildings, with one reportedly measuring about 70,000 square feet.
• Crews remain focused on clearing land and installing infrastructure, and vertical construction has yet to become prominent.
• Disney is relocating several decades-old oak trees for reuse, preparing their roots and supports for transplant rather than removing them.
• Industry rumors point to possible attractions tied to The Emperor’s New Groove and Maleficent, though Disney has not confirmed any lineup details.
