No problem, my pleasure.

That project is currently for 2036, according to the contract with the French Government. They have requested the extension of this so they can focus on updating this park before having a second Walt Disney Studios Park. That would really be a disaster.

Thanks for the insight. Didn’t realise it would coincide with that. Ive heard that Disney has to open a third gate by a certain time and that people are speculating that this expansion is instead of that. I would imagine it has to be a certain size and scope to meet those agreements. I just think Star Wars hardcore fans give Disney such a hard time about anything they do with Star Wars, that they may decide it’s not worth the expenditure. Can’t wait for Marvel Campus and Frozen land and the lagoon! Thanks

As far as we can understand the current timelines for the expansion, 2024 should see the arrival of Star Wars in the park. Which will be a big thing as the Olympic Games will be in Paris that year. I don't see Disney choosing to miss a huge marketing opportunity to miss such an occasion to attract more guests.

However, this was all before the world got shutdown. With the current decisions of Disney to postpone the Tron and Guardians of the Galaxy expansions in Walt Disney World. Who knows what they have decided with Paris.

Personally, I don't believe that the park will receive a complete new Star Wars world, it will remain Galaxy's Edge, just already prepared for integration of new Star Wars content.

I hope there’s another significant set piece on the cars tram tour to go alongside catastrophe canyon however I suspect it will just be a random placing of cars characters around the route.

Also I imagine the Route 66 tour is going to be pretty isolated for quite some time in that section of the park.
