Disney is going to be sharing a lot of exciting stuff this weekend at the D23 Expo involving their movies, TV shows, and theme park attractions.
We’ve known for awhile already that they are in the middle of building a Marvel-themed land at California Adventure. Well, we have some new info to share with you on that thanks to /Film who got early access to the convention floor.
Disney has revealed that the Marvel Land will be called Avengers Campus and guests will be recruited to fight alongside the Avengers. These campuses will be a place for guests to train with their heroes. It will also be filled with rides, attractions, shops, and restaurants. We have a couple pieces of concept art to share with you along with some additional information:
Here’s the Mission Statement:
Our world needs more heroes; the Global Avengers Initiative is creating a new place to bring them together.
Here, Earth’s mightiest protectors are assembling from across time and space to forge a Centralized Assembly Mobilized to Prepare, Unite, and Safeguard-a C.A.M.P.U.S. dedicated to empowering the next generation of heroes. By building a site where we can share out technology, skills, and knowledge with out Avengers Campus Recruits, we hope to inspire a new community of people willing to defend the world, no and for the future.
If you have hopes for a brighter tomorrow, ideas for a better today, and the courage to take action, you are invited to join us at the Avengers Campus. Here, you can train with the strongest,, build with the brightest, and unite as one team to help the world.
Avengers Assemble!
Here’s the Global Avengers Initiative:
There was an idea. To bring together a group of remarkable people, to see if they could become something more. It was called the Avengers Initiative.
That original idea has now evolved into a brand-new Global Avengers Initiative. This worldwide alliance bring together some of Earth’s mightiest, bravest, and most innovative minds not just to defend our planet, but to better its future
Representatives from Stark Industries, S.H.I.E.L.D., Pym Technologies, the nation of Wakanda, the Master of the Mystic Arts, and the new Worldwide Engineering Brigade are all joining forces with the Avengers and their cosmic allies to forge new outreach initiative and information exchanges around the globe.
Whether it’s by sharing innovative technologies at the Stark Expo or training the next generation of heroes at the Avengers Campuses, the Global Avengers initiative seeks to inspire new ideas abiout how we can join together to safeguard Earth.
This is a previously released description of what we can expect from Avengers Campus:
The Avengers are setting up new Headquarters and training facilities around the globe to inspire all potential recruits willing to step up and become something more. As part of this global initiative, Tony Stark has founded the Worldwide Engineering Brigade — or WEB for short— to develop advancements in super-powered technology, including new enhancements to Spider-Man’s suit as their debut project. By bringing together the world’s brightest young inventors, the WEB is creating new interfaces that will empower all of us to join the ranks of Earth’s Mightiest.
As of right now, we know that there will be a Spider-Man ride, which is kind of sad to think about right now after Disney and Marvel won’t be involved with the movies anymore. There’s also going to be a Ant-Man-themed microbrewery. We’ll learn more about this over the weekend at D23.
