Disneyland Paris confirmed the closure of Colonel Hathi’s, a quick-service dining location in Adventureland inspired by an original character from *The Jungle Book* (1967), on September 17, 2026. This follows the resort's unveiling on September 15 of new, exclusive artworks for the guest rooms of Disney Sequoia Lodge, part of the hotel’s ongoing multi-year refurbishment. These pieces, developed through a collaboration between Walt Disney Imagineering Paris and Walt Disney Animation Studios, establish an artistic direction focused on nature and Disney forest characters. Previously, on September 14, Walt Disney World Resort paid tribute to the short film *Once Upon a Studio* by recreating its iconic 60-character group photo in celebration of the official opening of The Magic of Disney Animation at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The new collection of interactive attractions and character experiences at Hollywood Studios centers on more than a century of Walt Disney Animation Studios films. This launch arrives as Walt Disney World enters an ambitious period, undertaking major projects such as Villains Land, Piston Peak, and Monstropolis, aiming to revitalize the resort's creative focus, a development noted on September 12.
