Fun facts
- The park originally opened as Disney-MGM Studios and functioned as a real working production facility in its early years.
- Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is set on the planet Batuu, a location created exclusively for the theme park — it does not appear in any prior Star Wars film.
- The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror's drop shaft was engineered with randomized sequences, so no two rides are exactly the same.
- Hollywood Studios is the smallest of the four Walt Disney World theme parks by acreage.
- Toy Story Land's oversized props were designed at 1:1 toy scale, making guests appear the size of a Green Army Man.
