Disney Parks Name Star Wars Lands Galaxy's Edge
-
Disney Parks isn’t letting Han Solo or Luke Skywalker save the day at their new Star Wars themed lands.
“When you step in to the world, you’re the hero,” Chris Beatty, Disney Imagineer and executive director of the new expansions said.
Beatty was just one of many Disney representatives who spoke on the new Star Wars-themed lands at the Disney fan expo D23 in Anaheim, California.
Bob Chapek, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Chairman, led a joyous panel where he unveiled many new projects for both domestic and international parks. New “Ratatouille,” ‘’Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Tron” attractions are headed to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
Discussion of the Star Wars land came early in Chapek’s presentation, pleasing an eager audience. A video detailed a model on display at the expo’s “A Galaxy of Stories.” Then, Chapek revealed the name for the expansions.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will first open at Disneyland, followed shortly by a second, identical location at Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World. Chapek said both are expected to open in 2019.

Tesla beat Wall Street's first-quarter profit expectations, but the stock still fell as investors focused less on the quarter itself and more on what comes next: a much larger capital spending plan, a costlier push into Al and robotics, and a notably more restrained tone from Elon Musk about how quickly those bets will pay off.
