This week, we shared a special sneak peek of the work being done to bring the world of AVATAR to life at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
The update included a new image showing what the magnificent floating mountains will look like when we welcome guests into Pandora, the mythical land based on the blockbuster film AVATAR. You’ll also be able to wander through a nighttime jungle of bioluminescent plants that are alive with light and sound and discover what it feels like to soar into the sky riding a Banshee.
As Bruce told us in his story, “The project is really pushing the boundaries of what is possible.”
Bruce shared that we’re planning to share Pandora’s grandeur with guests in early 2017.
