Guests visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios have been delighted, and perhaps a little confused, to discover that the projection show Disney Movie Magic is performing despite not being listed on any official entertainment schedules. The show, which celebrates the magic of Disney films, has been running regularly alongside the Wonderful World of Animation projection show.
Disney Movie Magic Performing Despite No Schedule
In late May 2024, the Disney Movie Magic projection show was removed from both the Walt Disney World website and the My Disney Experience app, leading many to believe that the show had been quietly retired. However, the show has been regularly performing many evenings, just before the Wonderful World of Animation show. And the show’s webpage is alive and well. The photos here were taken during the September 28th performance.
Disney Movie Magic is a captivating projection show that takes guests on a journey through some of the most iconic and beloved Disney films. The show features stunning projections on the façade of the Chinese Theatre, accompanied by a soaring musical score and classic movie scenes. The show also includes the man himself, Walt Disney.
From the swashbuckling adventures of Pirates of the Caribbean to the enchanting romance of Beauty and the Beast, the show highlights the timeless magic of Disney storytelling. Other featured films include Indiana Jones, The Jungle Book, and Guardians of the Galaxy.
Showtimes and Wonderful World of Animation
Although Disney Movie Magic has no officially posted showtimes, the show has been presented 20 minutes before Wonderful World of Animation. That show, which typically follows Disney Movie Magic, is a celebration of over 90 years of Disney and Pixar animation. The show features projections of classic and modern Disney and Pixar characters, accompanied by a medley of beloved songs from these animated films.
A Magical Surprise for Park Guests
As the summer season draws to a close, it remains to be seen whether Disney will officially add Disney Movie Magic back to the entertainment lineup or if the show will continue its unscheduled appearances. Regardless, the return of this projection show has brought an extra touch of magic to the evenings at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
