Disney has not provided an official reason for the suspension or a timeline for when the show will return, but it is expected to resume as it begins to get darker earlier in the day to offer a good backdrop for the projections to appear. As with any temporary closure or suspension, guests are encouraged to check for updates on the status of Disney Movie Magic and to plan their visits accordingly.

Wonderful World of Animation Still Scheduled

While the suspension of Disney Movie Magic may be disappointing to some guests, there are still plenty of other entertainment options available at Hollywood Studios. The nighttime spectacular, Wonderful World of Animation, is still schedule for 9pm each night, which celebrates Disney animation through projections and fireworks.
