A new kind of darkness is set to descend on Sunset Boulevard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios! An all-new live production starring some of Disney’s most notorious villains will take the stage in summer 2025. This show will bring together an ensemble of infamous Disney Villains, creating an experience as wicked as it is entertaining.
Enter the Realm of the Magic Mirror in this Disney Villains Show
The creative team at Disney Live Entertainment is hard at work transforming the Sunset Showcase theater. It will become a mysterious and enchanting space known as the Magic Mirror. This reflective realm will be the backdrop as audiences are drawn into the world of Disney Villains. The show will feature thrilling appearances by some of Disney’s most infamous evildoers. Cruella de Vil, Captain Hook, and Maleficent, are a few examples, with each breaking through the glass to captivate the audience with live production numbers.
A Final Lap at Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy
Before these villains take center stage, guests are encouraged to experience one last ride at Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy. The Racing Academy show will close on October 7. This attraction has been a favorite for fans of Pixar’s Cars franchise, offering an interactive experience with Lightning McQueen himself. The closure of this attraction makes way for the new villains-themed show, signaling an exciting new chapter for Sunset Boulevard.
A Villainous Expansion at Walt Disney World
This new production is just one part of Disney’s broader commitment to celebrating its iconic villains. In addition to the show, Disney has also announced plans for a Villains-themed land at Magic Kingdom, which was revealed during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. The addition of these villain-centric experiences underscores Disney’s recognition of the enduring popularity of its darker characters.
As anticipation builds for the debut of the new show, Disney fans can expect more details to be revealed on the Disney Parks Blog. The show, along with other new experiences coming to Disney parks and cruise ships around the world, is set to add even more magic—and a touch of wickedness—to the Disney experience.
