Photos: Progress Continues on the Exterior of Sunset Showcase Ahead of Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After Debut

The Disney Villains' new home will welcome guests starting on May 27th.

Work continues around the Sunset Showcase Theater at Disney’s Hollywood Studios as the park prepares to open Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After later this month..

What’s Happening:

  • On a recent trip to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Laughing Place checked out the current progress on the Sunset Showcase Theater as it prepares to debut Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After.
  • The venue formerly housed the Lightning McQueen Racing Academy show, and Disney has been slowly removing all remnants of the Pixar franchise from the outside of the Sunset Boulevard located theater.
  • The marquee that hung for the Lightning McQueen Racing Academy attraction was removed at some point last month.
  • This is what the soundstage looked like prior to the sign’s removal.

  • Both the DJ and Cruz Ramirez photo opportunity areas, which can be seen in the above image, have also been removed.
  • The last remaining detail of the former attraction exists as a decal on the large backstage gate near Sunset Showcase.

  • In Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After, the Magic Mirror will invite guests to hear out Disney’s most iconic villains. Telling their own stories, it will be up to the audience to decide whether or not these characters are evil or just misunderstood.
  • The cutting edge show sees villains return to the venue, which, prior to Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy, hosted the special ticked Club Villain.
  • The attraction is set to debut on May 27th at the Walt Disney World theme park. We imagine a new marquee for the villain’s new home will be added very soon.
