Earth’s Mightiest Heroes Assembling at Disney Parks Around the World Thanks to Global Avengers Initiative

Earth’s mightiest heroes are making their way into the Disney Parks around the globe. This is all part of an effort to save it and also have cohesive storytelling globally. Today on the Disney Parks Blog, this was explained by Scot Drake, Creative Executive, Marvel Global Portfolio. He shared the following:

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. One that brings us—the next generation of remarkable people—together. To find our power and become something more. To see if we can work alongside the Avengers so we may all become stronger together.

The Stark Expo in Hong Kong was to be a first step: A world exposition whose theme of ‘A Better Tomorrow Today,’ was meant to inspire and motivate through technological innovation. However, shortly after it opened, the Expo was attacked by the forces of Hydra. When even more powerful forces threatened the entire planet, the Avengers realized that the Earth needs more heroes.

So today, to better defend the planet, the Avengers are setting up new Headquarters and technology sharing exchanges around the globe to empower and inspire all potential recruits willing to step up and become heroes.

In California and Paris, Tony Stark is retrofitting two of his father’s Stark Industries sites into new hubs for training and innovation. Through partnerships with S.H.I.E.L.D., Pym Technologies, Masters of the Mystic Arts and the new Worldwide Engineering Brigade, The Avengers and their allies will forge new global campuses to champion the next generation of heroes. Who’s ready to answer the call?

The goal of all of this is to bring all of these super stories into one bigger world that spans the Disney Parks experiences cohesively. Drake explained that while there will be different experiences in different parks, they will all be connected. The whole thing got started with the Iron Man Experience, where guests battle the forces of Hydra at Hong Kong Disneyland. In March 2019 by the Ant-Man and the Wasp: Nano Battle! will offer guests another opportunity to partner up with Super Heroes at Hong Kong Disneyland. In this case, it will be Ant-Man and the Wasp as they battle Arnim Zola and his army of evil Hydra Swarm-bots for this interactive attraction.
