After the COVID-19 pandemic struck Disneyland Resort — and Disney Parks worldwide — the Southern California theme park has slowly but steadily worked hard to make the Guest experience magical again at the Happiest Place on Earth. However, after nearly two years of the Park’s reopening, one iconic Disneyland Resort offering is yet to open its doors to welcome Guests for a musical treat. However, that will soon change as a recent announcement will surely make Disney — and Marvel — fans jump for joy “all day.”
Disney just announced the long-awaited reopening of the Hyperion Theater at Disney California Adventure. While fans speculated about what musical production could mark the triumphant return of this iconic location — with some mentioning a possible Hercules (1997) adaptation and criticizing a possible Marvel-inspired project considering it a waste of resources —Disney surprised fans by announcing that “Rogers: The Musical” from the hit Marvel series Hawkeye would come to life this summer at Disney California Adventure’s Sunset Boulevard.
