Though 2020 may have only just begun, things are picking up speed as we careen to the opening of Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Disney’s Hollywood Studios! And just to keep you “post”ed, Disney has revealed the start of a new poster art countdown series in preparation for the attraction’s March 4th, 2020 opening. And if that wasn’t enough, Disney also added that posters created for existing shorts will be featured in the attraction’s queue.
The new “Wish Upon a Coin” poster – inspired by Mickey’s popular cartoon short – was unveiled during Disney Parks Blog’s New Year’s Eve livestream. From Disney Parks Blog:
As you can see, Mickey and Minnie are at the wishing well and we thought it was the perfect artwork to begin our countdown series and a new year of magical wishes!
At Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, the park’s Chinese Theater serves as the magic portal through which you can actually step into a colorful cartoon world where anything can happen. Why? Because here, mouse rules apply! On this zany, one-of-kind adventure, expect the unexpected as you ride through the NEW Mickey Mouse cartoon “Perfect Picnic”!
As you make your way to the “premiere” of “Perfect Picnic” in the attraction, you’ll move through the theater’s lobby and see whimsical posters of existing award-winning Mickey cartoon shorts created specifically for the attraction by Walt Disney Imagineering and Disney Television Animation.
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway will open beginning March 4, 2020 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and later at Disneyland park in 2022.
