Disney's Animation Courtyard Gets Ready for New Roaming Characters
Disney's Hollywood Studios has confirmed that roaming character appearances will continue after The Magic of Disney Animation opens on September 14. This raises questions about which characters will be part of this experience.
Several characters, including Rapunzel, Mulan, Chip 'n' Dale, Donald and Daisy, Goofy, and Stitch, are expected to become part of the Off the Page meet-and-greet experience inside the new attraction. This means there will be some spots to fill in the courtyard lineup.
Disney could introduce characters who already have dedicated locations elsewhere in Hollywood Studios, but this might defeat the purpose of this experience. Instead, they should consider using less-common faces that connect to the area's focus on animation history.
Some suggested additions include Clarabell Cow, Genie, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Snow White, and Asha. Each of these characters would bring a unique energy to the courtyard and create unexpected pairings with other characters.
