Annual Passholder access runs through a virtual queue as early reactions highlight a kid‑friendly show and question its fit beneath the Tree of Life.

Overview

  • Walt Disney World activated a virtual queue in the My Disney Experience app for Annual Passholder previews on November 5–6.
  • The nine‑minute 4D experience features scents, motion effects, “carrot vision” 3D glasses and a lifelike Clawhauser animatronic, with Jason Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin reprising their roles.
  • The attraction opens to all guests on November 7 in the Tree of Life Theater, replacing It’s Tough to Be a Bug!, which closed in March.
  • Disney is rolling out Zootopia‑themed merchandise and limited‑time food and beverages across Animal Kingdom to accompany the launch.
  • Preview reviews describe a bright, family‑focused show that relies on familiar in‑theater effects and draws mixed views on its thematic connection to Animal Kingdom.
