The first two episodes will also air October 13 on Freeform as part of its "31 Nights of Halloween" event.

Unlocking the Disney Treasure, Disney Cruise Line’s Newest Ship

By Courtney Potter

Adventure awaits… so come aboard the newest ship in Disney Cruise Line’s fleet and unlock treasures untold! Scheduled to set sail in December 2024, the Disney Treasure will feature both brand-new venues and reimagined fan-favorite spaces, bringing captivating stories from beloved Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar and Disney Parks adventures to life like never before. Spaces onboard will invite guests to step into colorful plazas in Mexico; travel below the ocean’s surface; and so much more.

From bow to stern, the Disney Treasure—inspired by Walt Disney’s own love of exploration, and the sister ship to the Disney Wish—will delight guests with memorable Disney storytelling around every corner as they encounter themed spaces, delicious eats and treats, and live entertainment inspired by terrific tales such as Aladdin, Coco, and Zootopia. If you’re anything like us and already packing your bags, you’ll be thrilled to learn that Disney Treasurebookings will begin in just a few weeks’ time!

“The Disney Treasure will bring brand-new stories to life, blending one-of-a-kind experiences with the extraordinary entertainment, world-class dining, and unparalleled hospitality that make every sailing so memorable,” says Sharon Siskie, senior vice president and general manager, Disney Cruise Line. “As we chart a course for adventure, we’re so excited for families to discover the excitement and exploration that awaits onboard the sixth ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet.”

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves: Like any good adventurer, we’ve got to follow a map… and in this case, thanks to Disney Cruise Line’s rollicking Disney Treasure virtual reveal on Tuesday, September 5, D23 was given a magical chart… err, well, at least a notable peek into what guests can expect from this astonishing ship:

In an artist’s rendering of Plaza de Coco onboard Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Treasure, a family of four—a grandmother, a father, and two young children—sits at a table and enjoys a meal while a performer dressed as Miguel from Disney and Pixar’s Coco is on stage, playing a white guitar and singing. The room is full of colorful lanterns and flags, and other families and waitstaff are watching the performer as well. The performer is dressed in a red hoodie and jeans.

Dining and Entertainment Inspired by the Worlds of Disney and Pixar
Adventures from the colorful, heartfelt worlds of Disney and Pixar will lend inspiration for two venues onboard the Disney Treasure. Plaza de Coco (pictured above) will be the first theatrical dining experience themed to the Disney and Pixar film Coco. This theater-in-the-round entertainment venue will feature dining tables that surround a central stage, with performances and show effects that spread throughout the room.

Guests will enjoy two different nights of unique dining experiences at Plaza de Coco during their voyage. On the first night, the story of Miguel and his familia will continue where it left off onscreen as they gather in Mariachi Plaza to take guests on a colorful, music-filled journey that celebrates family memories and togetherness. On the second night, Miguel will reunite with his great-great grandparents, Hector and Mama Imelda, by transporting them to Santa Cecilia with the help of his magic guitar for a Día de los Muertos celebration. Both nights will feature a dinner menu of modern twists on traditional Mexican fare and a lineup of live entertainment.

Additionally, Jumbeaux’s Sweets will be reminiscent of Jumbeaux Café, the adorable ice cream parlor from the bustling mammal metropolis featured in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Zootopia. Surrounded by playful pink interiors, Victorian-style architecture and an endearing sculpture of Officer Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, guests will be served humor and heart by the cone full. From bunnies and elephants to sloths and foxes, all are welcome to indulge in more than 35 flavors of handmade gelato, ice cream and sorbets, along with specialty treats, candies, and more.

In an artist’s rendering of the Skipper Society lounge, onboard Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Treasure, a server brings a plate of food to a woman seated towards the left of the frame. The room has a jungle-like feel, with vines and plants peeking through draped clothes on the ceiling. There is a bar towards the back of the image, as well as several booths—other patrons are located at each, enjoying drinks. A jungle-themed pattern adorns the space’s rug. The colors of the room are muted browns and greens, adding to the jungle feel.

Travel the High Seas with Disney Parks
For the first time, the nostalgia and lore from several beloved theme park attractions will come to Disney Cruise Line, with a unique lineup of Disney Parks-inspired venues aboard the Disney Treasure.

Skipper Society (pictured above), a themed lounge near the Grand Hall, will bring the iconic Jungle Cruise attraction to the sea; the venue’s natural colorways and camp-style furnishings, paired with sly tributes to those trusty, dry-witted skippers we know and love, will offer an elevated, playful atmosphere. Guests will discover references to the famous attraction throughout the space—from a whimsical monkey-shaped chandelier to postcards and luggage tags brought back from travels abroad. Beneath a canopy of jungle foliage, guests will indulge in themed cocktails and light snacks and enjoy live entertainment.

Periscope Pub will become Disney Cruise Line’s first venue inspired by the spellbinding exploits from Disney’s 1954 film 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and the Walt Disney World attraction that delighted guests from 1971 to 1994. The design of the submarine-style interiors will call upon 19th century steampunk influences with polished metals and industrial touches. A mysterious window into the depths of the uncharted oceans along the ceiling will make guests feel like Captain Nemo on the Nautilus, while a decorative statement rug in the center of the space will honor Captain Nemo’s fabled nemesis, the giant squid! This casual venue will be the ideal onboard locale for guests to unwind and watch live sports and news, while ordering from a menu of craft brews and light bites.

In an artist’s rendering of the living room area from the Tomorrow Tower Suite on board Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Treasure, a dining table can be seen on the left, with a couch and chairs to the right. A large, geodesic sculpture is hanging from the ceiling over the seating area. Towards the back of the image, part of a staircase can be seen. To the far right, part of a large two-story window overlooking the horizon. The upper level of the suite can partially be seen at the top of the image. The feel of the room is futuristic, with a lot of blues, silvers, and browns.

Fantastical Accommodations
Embracing the adventures of the future, the Tomorrow Tower Suite (pictured above) will capture the same forward-thinking mindset that inspired EPCOT at Walt Disney World Resort. Throughout the suite, dynamic art pieces, molten metal accents, and futuristic, colorful glass accents will evoke the distinct atmosphere of EPCOT’s World Discovery neighborhood. Set high in the ship’s forward funnel, this one-of-a-kind suite will overlook the top deck of the Disney Treasure and glimpse the open horizon through an expansive two-story window. With nearly 2,000 square feet of living space, the Tomorrow Tower Suite will comfortably sleep eight guests and feature areas for eating, sleeping, and playing—as well as other perks like a full kitchen and private ensuite elevator.

The other artful accommodations aboard the Disney Treasure will, of course, be inspired by classic Disney tales of adventure. The 1,240-plus staterooms onboard will feature custom artwork and design elements that evoke the exploratory spirit of beloved Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney and Pixar films including Aladdin, Pocahontas, Up, and Encanto, while the concierge and royal suites will bring to life the incredible character journeys—and a few cherished feline sidekicks—from The Lion King, The Jungle Book, and more.

In an artist’s rendering of the Grand Hall from inside Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Treasure, the three-story atrium can be seen, evoking the golden splendor of the palace of Agrabah from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Aladdin. A statue of Jasmine and Aladdin riding the magic carpet can be seen towards the middle of the image, at the bottom of the staircase, which wraps around most of the room and up to the third floor. Many doorways and corridors can be seen; the color scheme is mostly blue and gold.

Classic Adventures in Familiar Spaces
As with every Disney Cruise Line Ship, the Grand Hall, above, will embody the ship’s theme—in this case, evoking adventure—with statues and decor that call on the gilded palace and wonder of Agrabah from the Walt Disney Animation Studios classic Aladdin. The space will serve as the ship’s most prominent gathering space and will offer its own dedicated entertainment moments and surprises.

Just off the Grand Hall, two casual walk-up cafés will serve a selection of coffee, tea, specialty beverages, and snacks, with new themes that draw inspiration from two beloved Disney Princesses: Moana and Mulan. Heihei Café, named for Moana’s hilarious sidekick, will echo the scalloped seashells and reflective blue waters of the Southern Pacific Isle of Motunui as its portrayed in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Moana. The venue will feature furniture stylings that pay homage to a traditional construction technique used by the Polynesian people to craft seafaring vessels. Meanwhile, Jade Cricket Café, inspired by the Disney classic Mulan, will honor the Fa family’s lucky cricket Cri-Kee—who will be represented by a jade sculpture on the bar top. From the central moon gate to the plum blossom flowers adorning the walls, symbols of Mulan’s strength, beauty, and heritage will fill the café, while the striking blue walls and metallic counters will be reminiscent of her armor.

Plus, Sarabi—a central hub for all sorts of daytime activities and adult-exclusive evening entertainment—will evoke the natural beauty and openness of the savanna where its namesake, the lioness matriarch from Disney’s The Lion King, lived.

AquaMouse, Disney Cruise Line’s very own attraction at sea, will plunge guests into the world of Mickey Mouse animated shorts. Suspended high above the upper decks, the attraction’s powerful jets will propel two-person ride vehicles through 760 feet of winding tubes—offering breathtaking views of the ocean and the ship below. Onboard the Disney Treasure, AquaMouse will introduce a brand-new storyline, Curse of the Golden Egg, that follows Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse on a zany misadventure into an ancient temple for a glimpse of the legendary treasure within.

In a promotional image from Disney Cruise Line, the cast of Disney Seas the Adventure is seen on stage at the Walt Disney Theatre. Among the characters are Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Minnie Mouse, and Donald Duck in their nautical best, as well as Princess Tiana, Hercules, Merida, Cinderella, Belle, Aladdin, Moana, Mulan, and Elsa. Behind the cast, projected, is the Disney Cruise Line logo surrounded by virtual fireworks. Audience members can be seen in silhouette, applauding the show.

But that is, of course, not all: So many Disney Cruise Line favorites will be returning to the Disney Treasure! In addition to an all-new, yet-to-be-announced stage production (!) coming to the Walt Disney Theatre, Beauty and the Beast and Disney Seas the Adventure (pictured above) will thrill audiences with tales as old as time, while the upper decks will come to life with music and fireworks during the swashbuckling Pirate’s Rockin’ Parlay Party. In terms of delicious food, Worlds of Marvel—which will include a new, second dining experience with more details to come—and 1923 will round out the family dining rotation, while The Rose, Palo Steakhouse, and Enchanté by Chef Arnaud Lallament will continue to wow adults with exceptional views, gourmet meals, and delicious beverages.

For kids of all ages, Disney’s Oceaneer Club, Edge, Vibe, and It’s a Small World Nursery return provide designated space to let their imaginations run free under the guide of Disney-trained counselors.

The Disney Treasure will embark on its maiden voyage, a seven-night Eastern Caribbean cruise from Port Canaveral, Florida, on December 21, 2024, followed by an inaugural season of seven-night itineraries to the Eastern and Western Caribbean from Port Canaveral. Disney Cruise Line Castaway Club members can book a Disney Treasure cruise as early as Tuesday, September 12, 2023—while bookings will open to all guests on Wednesday, September 20, 2023.

What to Expect From Season 2 of I Am Groot

By Emily Hewitt

What trouble is Baby Groot getting into now? As Season 2 of I Am Groot premieres on September 6, D23 sat down with Kirsten Lepore, writer, director, and executive producer of I Am Groot, to discuss what’s in store for the mischievous twig.

In Season 1, audiences saw Groot burst out of his planter, learn how to walk and talk, and go on adventures. Groot was the human equivalent of around 5 years old through the first series of shorts; now he is about 6 or 7 in human years, Lepore said.

“He’s definitely got the same childlike essence,” she promised. “In the first episode, he gets a taste of parenting, so he’s growing and learning in that way. As with all kids, you still have moments where they act like a tiny toddler, and then you have moments where they’re wise beyond their years.”

When first creating Baby Groot’s character for I Am Groot, Lepore spoke with James Gunn, executive producer of the shorts and director of the Guardians of the Galaxy films, to make sure she stayed true to the character he created. Gunn’s best nuggets of wisdom about Groot were that he is a “bad baby” and an “emoji guy.”

“He has a very simple face, and all he has to do is strike a pose and you understand that face—like what an emoji is,” Lepore said.

Lepore had the opportunity to develop Groot’s personality further in the series, much of which is inspired by funny stories from the childhoods of herself, story editors, and storyboard artists. The goal for Season 2 was to make it even more specific and personal, allowing audiences to relate even more to Groot’s universal childlike essence.

“For example, the ice cream truck episode [in Season 2], at least for me, ripped a page out of my childhood,” Lepore said about Episode 4 when Groot frantically scours the spaceship for coins as an intergalactic ice cream truck approaches. “It’s so relatable.”

Early on, Lepore and her team came up with about 30 one- to two-sentence loglines for stories, and from those, the executives chose five to develop into the shorts of Season 2. She snuck a logline into the pile in which Groot gets an actual, functioning nose—she thought it was so ridiculous that the executives would never go for it. Lo and behold, it is now Episode 2 of Season 2.

“They really let me run with my weird ideas, which felt very good, and I feel very supported in that way,” Lepore said.

One episode that really developed from a small idea into a fleshed-out concept was the snow day episode of Season 2. It started out with Groot just playing in a snowsuit. Along the way, an antagonist snowman was born, and the plot coalesced.

“By the end, I think it became one of our favorite episodes,” Lepore said. Each new element, as it was layered on, including the music, “felt like it just kept adding another cherry on top. That one, I think, got even better than we ever imagined it was going to be.”

Another important decision that goes hand in hand with the plot is the unique location in each episode. It was important to Lepore to have the spaceship make several appearances in the series to keep the show grounded, while also adding new locations.

Lepore, who comes from a stop-motion animation background, noted that the snow day episode was particularly fun to watch being created via CGI. “We really got to take advantage of that medium in having all these interactions with the snow,” Lepore said. “We tried to make [the locations] a little more diverse and change it up from the first season. So, he’s kind of been all over.”

5 Fantastic Things to Watch This Weekend Presented by State Farm®

By Courtney Potter

Can you believe that Labor Day Weekend is upon us? With any luck, you might have some extra time in your schedule for some additional merriment from around the worlds of Disney. To that end, we’ve created a mini Disney+ watch list featuring titles, from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney and Pixar, that have to do with work… whistling while you do it; striving towards a dream career—you name it, and there’s a Disney animated hit that’s covered it. (And these are only five examples!) So take a break from your own labors and enjoy:

In an image from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the dwarfs are seen marching along a hillside carrying their tools for mining. They’re in the middle of a song. A large tree can be seen behind them.

Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
The first feature film for The Walt Disney Company has one song literally titled “Whistle While You Work,” and another with the lyric “Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s off to work we go”… so, despite the fact that the main plot doesn’t have much to do with labor, we couldn’t not include this on our weekend watchlist! For those who need a refresher, the 1937 film follows a beautiful girl (voiced by Disney Legend Adriana Caselotti) who takes refuge in the forest in the house of the Seven Dwarfs to hide from her stepmother, the wicked Queen (voiced by Lucille La Verne). Adventure, music, and romance, as it so often does, ensue.

Watch Now

In an image from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ The Princess and the Frog, Tiana (voiced by Disney Legend Anika Noni Rose) is working at a restaurant and serving several customers seated at a counter to her left. She holds a tray aloft with her right hand, over her head, and is handing a plate to a customer with her left hand. She’s wearing a yellow dress and a white apron. Diner-type items can be seen on the counter, and the kitchen can be seen behind and to her right.

Walt Disney Animation Studios’ The Princess and the Frog
This one is particularly prescient, considering that the new restaurant Tiana’s Palace opens at Disneyland Park in just a few days. (Plus, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is set to open at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resort in 2024!) The 2009 animated hit is a modern twist on the classic fairy tale… Tiana (voiced by Disney Legend Anika Noni Rose) dreams of someday owning her own restaurant. When she meets a frog prince desperate to be human, a pivotal kiss takes the pair on an uproarious adventure through the mystical Louisiana bayous. Entrepreneurship, jazz, and magic—what more could you want for Labor Day viewing?!

Watch Now

In an image from Disney and Pixar’s Ratatouille, Remi (voiced by Patton Oswalt) is standing on the edge of a large soup pot, holding up a wooden spoon and smelling its contents; his eyes are closed, and he has a pleased look on his face. He’s also holding a sprig of parsley in his left hand.

Disney and Pixar’s Ratatouille
Ever wanted to work in a restaurant kitchen? Creating unique, delicious dishes of your own design? Remy (voiced by Patton Oswalt) did—and he got his chance in this 2009 film. This very adorable and very determined young rat (yup, he’s a rat!) dreams of becoming a world-renowned chef, despite his large family’s wishes to the contrary. Eventually, Remy finds himself at Gusteau’s, one of Paris’ finest restaurants, established by his culinary hero. This sets off a rollicking chain of events involving “garbage boy” Linguini (voiced by Lou Romano)—who inadvertently discovers Remy’s amazing talents—as well as Collette (voiced by Janeane Garofalo), the restaurant’s only female cook.

Watch Now

In a still from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Zootopia, from left to right, Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman) and Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) are in a darkened room; Nick is standing next to Judy, who’s sitting at a desk looking at a computer that’s just off screen. They both look intrigued regarding whatever contents the computer screen is showing them.

Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Zootopia
The story at the center of this 2016 hit is that of Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin), a kind-hearted gal who leaves the quiet confines of her hometown for the fast-paced, all-animal city of Zootopia—where she becomes the first bunny on the police force. Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the chance to solve a new case… even if it means partnering with charming scam-artist fox Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman). For an extra dose of Zootopia fun, check out the Disney+ limited series Zootopia+!

Watch Now

In an image from Disney and Pixar’s Soul, Joe Gardner (voiced by Jamie Foxx) is walking briskly across a busy New York City street, within a striped crosswalk. He’s wearing a turtleneck, slacks, and a hat and is holding a briefcase in one hand and a phone up to his ear with the other. Cabs and other cars are whizzing by him on either side of the street.

Disney and Pixar’s Soul
Pianist and part-time music teacher Joe Gardner (voiced by Jamie Foxx) lands the gig of a lifetime at the best jazz club in New York City. Despite also having been offered the chance to teach full-time, Joe decides to chase his dream—only to wind up, thanks to one big misstep, in a truly fantastical place called The Great Before. There, he teams up with wisecracking soul 22 (voiced by Tina Fey) to not only find the answers to some of life’s biggest questions, but also figure out whether Joe can find his way back to, well, life.
