Some Disney rumors have come true — like the hushed whispers about a potential return of Bob Iger as CEO — while others have simply kept circulating within the rumor mill. One big rumor that has been going around for a while and has recently picked up some more steam is the possibility of Disney being sold to Apple. In fact, it’s something Iger speculated might have occurred if Steve Jobs was still alive. To some, selling Disney to Apple might seem like a great idea, but it will come with its own set of complicated challenges…
A BRAND new Disney restaurant has opened up and it’ll have you feeling like you’ve left the Happiest Place on Earth and entered…New Orleans!
Tiana’s Palace
Tiana’s Palace restaurant has officially opened in Disneyland Park!

Some MAJOR changes could be coming to Disney World soon.
Concept Art
During the D23 Expo in 2022, Disney hinted at a potential expansion in Magic Kingdom that could house lands themed to Coco, Encanto, and even the Disney Villains. But Disney also teased the idea of retheming DinoLand U.S.A. at Disney’s Animal Kingdom park into a space all about Moana or Zootopia. We’ve since broken down Disney’s concept art in detail and looked at how likely it would be for them to actually be built. Now we’re taking another look at these teased spaces to see what technology could be pointing toward their eventual creation!

One tool you’ll find yourself using a LOT in Disney World is the My Disney Experience app. This is the official Disney World app, which can be downloaded on your mobile device. The app can help you do a whole bunch of useful things in the parks like check ride wait times, place Mobile Orders, and secure those Genie+ selections. But the app keeps changing and evolving, getting new features that you might have TOTALLY missed out on. So today we’re taking a look at 3 of the newest Disney World app updates/additions to help you make the most of your use of the app.
Is Bob Iger the savior some have made him out to be or is he really and truly a secret saboteur?

After Bob Chapek took over the role of Disney CEO, a number of big changes hit the Company. Rumors circulated of Iger’s return to make some adjustments. Iger claimed these were false, saying “You can’t go home again. I’m gone.” But that would prove to be untrue. Stories began to circulate about how Iger reportedly regretted picking Chapek as his successor. Chapek was ultimately ousted and Iger returned as CEO in 2022. Details about the transition from Iger to Chapek have long been discussed. But new information has since been shared.
