Disney Bringing Marvel Attractions To Disneyland?

“Walt Disney Co’s design team has increased its efforts to bring the Marvel superhero team “The Avengers” to the company’s theme parks after the film’s smashing success, the head of Disney’s parks unit said on Thursday.”

Well this rumor has been floating around for quite some time now. These rumors have included changing rides to have Marvel characters and even turn Innoventions into a Stark Expo (yes…please). Well it looks like it just may be coming true and coming to a theme park near you. Well…that is if you live in California.

“We were hard at work on attractions using Marvel characters previously, and that work has only intensified given (the film’s) great success,” Staggs, chairman of Disney’s parks and resorts division, told Reuters in an interview at the park’s Golden Vine Winery.

Now while Disney cannot bring the characters to their Orlando park where they are contractually restricted due to them being licensed to Comcast Corp’s Universal Studios.

The big reason behind this seems to due to the massive drop in California Adventure’s attendance since its 2001 opening. Disney is probably seeing the huge success in ‘The Avengers’ as a chance to revitalize the park and expand the franchise.

Will you assemble at the happiest place on earth if so?
