In an interview with The Wrap, Lin-Manuel Miranda shared his vision for an “Encanto” attraction at a Disney Park.
When asked if he wants a theme park attraction or a Colombia pavilion at EPCOT, Miranda said, “Well, I took my kids to Disneyland for the first time pre-pandemic a few years ago. And we sat through The Little Mermaid thing five times in a row. That’s where my brain goes. It’s like, I want to go in and out of this casita and see those characters and see the house respond because that’s something Disney can do that no one else can do. But yeah, in terms of the world of the characters, it’s really early days on that. I don’t know what that will be.”
As Miranda said, it’s early days, and an “Encanto” attraction probably wouldn’t arrive at a Disney Park for several years, if ever — see the “Moana” attraction still being constructed.
That said, “Encanto” has been a huge hit, with multiple Academy Award nominations, a Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper, and a return to theaters. In the parks, “Encanto” protagonist Mirable has appeared at Disney California Adventure and there is an “Encanto”-themed booth at the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts.
