Doctor Strange Rumored to Appear in New ‘WandaVision’ Series Coming to Disney+

Doctor Strange Rumored to Appear in New ‘WandaVision‘ Series Coming to Disney+. Not much is known about the new Marvel series, WandaVision, other than it is “unlike anything Marvel has done before.”

The plot for the series is being kept tight under wraps, but we do know the series will introduce Wanda and Vision living a more “idolized” lifestyle, and we will see other Marvel Alum such as Kat Dennings (Darcy, Thor) and rumored to appear is Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange).

Strange is expected to appear in the final episodes of the series and will usher in the storyline for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch has already been confirmed for the MCU film, so Cumberbatch’s appearance at the end of WandaVision makes complete sense.

It is unknown how involved Doctor Strange’s appearance would be in the series, he could appear in several episodes, or for a split second at the end of the series. We’ll have to wait until 2021 to find out!

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is already said to be the first “horror” movie in the MCU, and we can’t wait to see where Marvel goes while exploring the Multiverse. Be sure to check back here at Chip and Co for all things Marvel.

New Holiday Cone-Coctions At The Cozy Cone Motel

The “Haul-idays” are here! At The Cozy Cone Motel in Carsland at the Disney California Adventure Park guests are invited to celebrate all that the season has to offer with festive decor, seasonal attractions, and holiday eats!

The Cozy Cone Hotel is the place to be for a great snack for everyone. With four different “cone” stations to visit with different menus, there is truly something for everyone. For the “Haul-iday” season, the Cozy Cone has added a select number of seasonal offerings for guests to enjoy. One of these new cone-coctions is Luigi’s Chicken Pesto Cone! This new seasonal snack is so delicious that we didn’t want it to be over! This bread cone is filled with creamy pesto Alfredo pasta with marinated chicken, a balsamic reduction, bruschetta tomatoes, and topped with Romano cheese. The only thing we didn’t like about this cone, is that it is only here for the holiday season!

For dessert, there are a couple of different seasonal selections guests can choose from. The Cozy Cone is now serving up a Peppermint Soft-Serve cone. You can get this yummy peppermint dessert topped with crushed candy canes for an even more festive treat.

Another seasonal offering, is the Sugar Cookie Churro. This churros reminds us of baking cookies at Christmas with your family and friends. This churro even looks too cute to eat. The churros is rolled in sugar and topped with white icing and holiday sprinkles!

You don’t want to miss the “Haul-idays” at Carsland this year at the Disneyland Resort!

Enjoy honey-doused treats at The Honey Bee-stro, citrus treats at The Citrus Blossom, and both sweet and salty munchies at Florida Fresh.

May the force be with you because Hollywood Studios is now offering backup boarding groups!

Yes you read that right, starting now the park will be distributing backup boarding groups for the newest Star Wars attraction Rise of the Resistance so now you have a second chance of enjoying this ride.

The backup groups will only be called once the initial boarding group is called back and there’s still space for more recruits, so if you are lucky enough to be there during one of those days when the attraction doesn’t have too much down time then you might be able to board!

Please be aware that having a backup boarding group doesn’t guarantee access to Rise of the Resistance but at least is worth a shot! If your backup group gets called you will get a push notification or you can check on your My Disney Experience app as well.

Ready to join the Resistance in an epic battle against the First Order? You won’t regret it!

A Walt Disney World guest tried walking into the Animal Kingdom theme park on Sunday with a loaded gun in his backpack according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.

Nathan Polit, of Boynton Beach, was stopped at the entrance security point at Disney’s Animal Kingdom around 9:30 a.m. on December 15th.

According to the report he put the 9mm gun from his car to his back the night before and forgot to put it back into his vehicle before entering the park. He does not have a concealed carry permit and the gun was fully loaded when he tried to walk into the no bag line at the Animal Kingdom.

The arrest report shows he was charged with carrying a concealed firearm and he was issued a trespass warning from all Walt Disney World properties.

A Disney spokesperson noted that Polit never made it beyond the security checkpoint.

Great Job!

They are dressing up their newborns with handmade Baby Yoda hats and onesies from Star Wars: The Mandalorian.

The onesies say “Merry I Must Be” and “Cute I Am” which is more in line with Yoda but we still think it is adorable!

Yesterday marked the opening of the all-new Riviera Resort in Walt Disney World. We were on hand to get a first look at this stunning European themed resort.

We posted photo tours of the different foods, rooms, merch and more which you can take a look at:

If you are anything like me you like a good video over a photo tour. Sometimes photos do not do it justice. I wanted to piece together some of the videos we took from yesterday so you can see the Riviera Resort in its splendor.

Let’s jump right in…

First up we have a video of the Opening Dedication:

Next Susan was able to walk around the Lobby to give us a look at how it would feel walking into the resort.

Then she checked out some of the artwork and a little more inside this new resort:

We were also able to get a sneak peek at the Food & Beverage offerings that will be available around the resort:

of course, we can’t forget about the Merchandise…

Then she was able to talk to one of the Cast Members at Disney on how they chose the artwork in the rooms and around the resort:

Finally, we check out the Grand Villa Suite on this walkthrough tour.

As you can see the all-new Disney’s Riviera Resort is simply stunning and one place I am really looking forward to visiting in the near future!

New Disney Rug Collection From Ruggable, The Washable Rugs

I had only recently heard about Ruggable Rugs, but they seemed quite interesting. Then I found out they also had a Disney Rug Collection! If you haven’t heard of Ruggable before, it is a brand that offers unique washable rugs, that come in beautiful styles, and make cleaning a breeze.

This collection is sprinkled with whimsical elements and subtle silhouettes of Disney’s most beloved characters. These machine-washable rugs and runners are also as magical as they are functional. You’ll find classic “rug” designs like trellis, damask, and even Persian featuring Mickey and friends.

Lots of details have gone into this collection as well. One of the most detailed looks are the Hidden Mickey designs sprinkled throughout the Persian style rugs. Many of the rugs look like your everyday designs from afar. However upon second glance you’ll notice the fun Disney elements.

There are also different color options for the varied amount of designs offered. I love this because it gives more options for decorating different rooms. More neutral colors might be great for a living room, while softer pastels will add magic to a nursery or kid’s room.

Style meets function!

Then there is the added functionality to the stylish designs that makes me love it more! Ruggable’s patented rug system comes in two pieces: a lightweight Rug Cover and a non-slip Rug Pad. The lightweight Rug Cover is stain-resistant, and waterproof. It is also designed to fit conveniently in your home washing machine! The mom in me is screaming YAY!

The new Disney collection of rugs includes 11 different designs, each available in 2 – 3 different color options. The collection also retails for $109.00 to $399.00. The pricing depends on the size of rug you choose.

We don’t usually see much for larger Disney inspired floor coverings, let alone ones so gorgeous! I for one can’t wait to add a little more Disney to my home with this stunning new Disney Rug Collection from Ruggable, what about you?

You can find the entire collection online now at Ruggable.com!
