AVATAR land at Disney's Animal Kingdom

Imagineer Joe Rohde comments on AVATAR land

Mar 29, 2012 | 6:08pm EDT
As part of a brief interview with the official Disney Parks Blog, Animal Kingdom's chief Imagineer Joe Rohde commented on AVATAR land.  This follows a brief comment from Disney CEO Bob Iger earlier this month, both of which seem to indicate that the project remains very much alive.

From the Disney Parks Blog.
What are you looking forward to next? When I think about the AVATAR story and Disney’s Animal Kingdom, I see the value systems that underlie both. We have the opportunity to tell that story in a way that will make the AVATAR experience feel like a natural part of Disney’s Animal Kingdom. All of us who are designers have an opportunity to take the work we are given and make it something unexpected. That’s how we help the company to grow and expand into new areas.
