Mickey, Donald, Other Disney Characters to Appear in 3-D in New Magic Kingdom Attraction

Disney magic meets Disney music in a new 3-D film spectacular debuting in 2003 at Magic Kingdom® Park at the Walt Disney World Resort.

“Mickey’s PhilharMagic” will star Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and other favorite Disney Characters animated in a way they’ve never before been seen: grand, glorious, in-your-face three dimensions.

The “Mickey’s PhilharMagic” cast will include Mickey and Donald, as well as Ariel from “The Little Mermaid,” Aladdin and Jasmine from “Aladdin” and Simba from “The Lion King.”

Set in the PhilharMagic Concert Hall, which replaces “Legend of the Lion King” in Fantasyland, the eye-popping 3-D experience will unfold on one of the largest screens ever created for a 3-D film, a 150-foot-wide canvas. Complete with in-theater effects, the attraction will immerse guests in the richly animated world of the Disney Characters.

The Walt Disney Company has experimented with animating the Disney Characters in 3-D before, most notably in “Working for Peanuts,” a 1953 Donald Duck/Chip 'n' Dale cartoon short, but never on a scale as grand as “Mickey’s PhilharMagic.” The attraction is being produced through the combined efforts of Walt Disney Imagineering and Walt Disney Feature Animation.
