While character lineups often shift behind the scenes, it’s always a thrilling moment when a rare or highly anticipated character steps out into the park early. Mulan was seen greeting delighted guests, posing for photos, and bringing a touch of honor and courage to the park’s lineup.

These soft-opening style appearances are a fantastic treat for anyone lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time, offering a magical preview of the park’s upcoming character experiences.

These surprise sightings aren’t just random luck—they are tied to a much larger refresh happening right now at the park! Disney’s Hollywood Studios is currently putting the finishing touches on its newly reimagined Animation area. As part of this major update, a brand-new indoor character meet-and-greet spot is set to officially open soon, and Mulan will be one of the permanent stars of the new location.

Taking over a refreshed space designed to look like an authentic studio lot, this dedicated character spot will give Mulan a beautiful, permanent indoor home where guests can regularly line up to meet her, chat about saving China, and snap the perfect photo.

Stepping out into the park early allows characters to test out the spaces and delight guests while the final details of the indoor meet-and-greet venue are completed. The official grand opening of the new character spot is just around the corner, but in the meantime, keep your eyes peeled next time you walk through Hollywood Studios—you never know when a legend might step out to say hello!
