Other reveals include Piston Peak, a Tomorrowland overhaul, and new Disney Cruise line ships. Tropical Americas Land at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Orlando will feature three new rides, including Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent, and Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, with original voice actors reprising their roles.
