Any word on Hall of Presidents?

[justreading]

Has anyone heard anything about Hall of Presidents opening?

I would think it would be open by the July 4th, I'm sure they have the new president in place. This is just my thought, I haven't heard anything. I've always thought when they updated it, it was done by that date.

According to Wikipedia, the last guy was added in December 2017.

I thought they closed it at the beginning of the year to start working on the new president. Guess I'm wrong.

If I recall correctly, Disney had to wait a while for his voice over. The guy before him was added on July 4th after his first election.

To the OP, no word and no announcement.

Haven't heard any rumors about when the new President will be installed. Usually by now you see rumors about the sculpture and recording of a narrative. Strangely quiet this year.

Takes Disney 5 years to do anything anymore.

No idea. Probably October 1 like everything else.

I was at MK the other day and a CM said it is planned to open for the 50th celebration.

IDK how high up retrofitting an animatronic to become Biden is on the priority list though if I had to guess it will reopen on or before 10/1

I like the Hall of Secretaries of the Interior (wait time: 0:00 minutes) at Krustyland.

"The guy before him?" That guy is Donald J. TRUMP!

That poster was talking about Obama as 'the guy before him.' But good job finding a perceived slight, I guess.

I'm also of the belief that a new president should not have a speaking role. It makes things too divisive. Put them on the stage and keep the rest of the show the same.

And to think, this thread almost made it to page 2.

I tried to find a solution to help everyone! It would also help cut down on the downtime needed to update the show.

Sure you were. I really don't care one way or the other, so not taking the bait. It's a shame people can't be civil these days. Post quickly, because it's all downhill from here- but without me.

How is saying they should remove the speaking role for the current president not being civil? I didn't vote for Trump, but staging protests inside a Disney World attraction once he was added to the show was ludicrous. Same thing I'd say if people try to do it when the Biden figure goes up. Doesn't matter if it's a Republican, Democrat, third-party.

Just let Lincoln do the whole thing and have the new president nod when it's his or her time to be introduced. Or have Sam Eagle talk the whole time. Or the president from Independence Day or President Harrison Ford from Air Force One.

Moderator, please close this thread. I got my answer...no word on a reopening date. Thank you.
