Josh D’Amaro Says Disney Is ‘Just Getting Started’ After TRON Completion
We are now less than 30 days away from the official opening of TRON Lightcycle / Run at Magic Kingdom, and while Disney World fans are abuzz with anticipation, Disney has no plans of stopping there.
A Trip On “The Grid”
For those who don’t know, the new roller coaster takes guests into “The Grid,” where they mount Lightcycles and race through the digital world of TRON. Reaching speeds of nearly 60 mph, the attraction will be the fastest in Magic Kingdom.
In a recent interview with Orlando Business Journal, Josh D’Amaro, Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products, had some things to say about TRON.
“TRON is spectacular. Adding something of this size and scope to the most visited theme park in the world is pretty ambitious and incredible. You see the guests walking off that experience … The look on their faces — and it adds to the whole experience we offer here. But there’s no end … TRON is the tip of the iceberg of what’s coming.”
Disney is Not Done Yet
While TRON’s completion will mark the end of a six-year journey for Disney, who originally announced its creation on June 15, 2017, Josh D’Amaro, says the company is not done yet.
“Our Imagineers, our entire team, are incredibly ambitious about the experience here. And how it will continue to grow and evolve. You’ve seen it come to life with the 50th anniversary coming out of the pandemic and how we stood right back up and brought back all the things people love and added new things. You have seen it at EPCOT — it’s totally transforming — and that will continue to transform,” D’Amaro said.
Disney still has Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Journey of Water on the docket. However, D’Amaro seems to be hinting that something bigger is on the horizon.
“We are just getting started,” he said.
