In preparation for the upcoming Fantastic Four meet and greet at Disneyland Resort, an area in Tomorrowland has been set up with a new backdrop.
New Fantastic Four Meet and Greet Backdrop
As previously announced by Disney earlier this week, a new limited-time meet and greet will be coming to Disneyland Park to celebrate the release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps in theaters. The meet and greet, which will include all four members of the family as well as the robot H.E.R.B.I.E., will begin on Friday, July 25. Select appearances are also coming soon to Disneyland Paris and Hong Kong Disneyland Resort.
It appears that preparation work is underway for the meet and greet, as a new backdrop has arrived to the side of Space Mountain in Tomorrowland, near the Tomorrowland Theater.
The new backdrop includes a building with blue windows, white columns, and a sloped roof. The aesthetic is similar to the architecture of the Baxter Building, as seen in the film’s official poster, though the backdrop is a bit shorter and wider.
Disneyland confirmed each member of the Fantastic Four will be meeting guests individually in a dedicated space, and H.E.R.B.I.E. will also have his own dedicated meet and greet spot. As a result, it is possible this new backdrop will only be used for one character instead of the whole group, but we will have to wait and see when the meet and greet officially begins tomorrow.
Disneyland Resort is celebrating the release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps with a new The Thing Sipper and Mr. Fantastic Straw Clip, both of which released earlier today. You can also check out the full list of Fantastic Four-inspired food and beverage items at Disney Parks. Meanwhile, the film is set to debut in theaters on the same day as the meet and greet, July 25.
