Star Wars is Coming To a Disney Park Soon

It’s official, Star Wars is coming to Disney.

It looks like we can set the rumors aside since we now have confirmation from Bob Iger himself.

Mr. Iger, CEO for Disney, announced at yesterday’s earnings conference call that they will add a “far greater Star Wars presence” and later reiterated that these plans are “significant.”

The move comes as Disney is readying to release a new “Star Wars” film in theaters starting Dec. 18, 2015, that J.J. Abrams is currently directing.

Little other details are available at this time, but at least this is confirmation of what has been long rumored.

Disney will unveil its Star Wars theme park plans next year.

When asked if Disney was looking to broker new licensing deals with other franchise owners for attractions the way it did with James Cameron’s “Avatar,” Iger dismissed the notion, citing properties owned by Marvel, Pixar and Lucasfilm, “We don’t have to license from third parties,” he said. “We own them all.”
