Could A 'Star Wars' Attraction Replace Disneyland's Innoventions Exhibit In Tommorrowland?
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Disneyland is closing its Innoventions exhibit hall in Tomorrowland, bringing flurries of speculation over what might replace it.
The Los Angeles Times and the Orange County Register report that the Southern California theme park will close the exhibit hall at the end of the month.
Disney has announced no plans for what will replace Innoventions, which focuses on robots and computers and has been in Tomorrowland in some form since 1967.
But recent revelations from company executives that more Star Wars attractions are coming to its parks has led to rumors that that is what will replace it.
Some have suggested Disney would replace the exhibit with Disneyland memorabilia in conjunction with the park's 60th anniversary in May.
Other rumors point to the Disney purchase of Marin County-based Lucasfilm will lead to a "Star Wars" themed exhibit for the circular building.
Even other fans say that Disney's acquisitions of the Marvel Comics universe might find a home in the space.
