A fortnight shy of the upcoming The Mandalorian & Grogu mission, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run has received an update to its preshow dialogue that makes the attraction timeless, hinting at future updates.<\/p>\n

Updated \u2018Timeless\u2019 Preshow Dialogue for Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
\n\"New<\/a><\/p>\n

\"New<\/a><\/p>\n

We reported on the updated preshow<\/a> last weekend, but went to Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios to capture it for ourselves. In the\u00a0original Smugglers Run preshow<\/a>, Hondo Ohnaka welcomes us to his operation and explains how we\u2019ll be helping him. The Millennium Falcon arrives, Chewbacca appears onscreen, and Hondo greets him. Their one-sided dialogue reveals that a previous \u201cwin-win\u201d arrangement allowed Hondo to borrow the Falcon to retrieve coaxium for the Resistance while he keeps the profits.<\/p>\n

\"New<\/a><\/p>\n

The updated dialogue removes references to the First Order and the Resistance, which allows the attraction to function within both Disneyland\u2019s original trilogy<\/a> and Hollywood Studios\u2019 sequel trilogy timelines in the parks\u2019 respective Galaxy\u2019s Edge outposts. It also implies that Hondo is temporarily stealing the Falcon<\/a> from Chewie for our use on the mission.<\/p>\n

\"New<\/a><\/p>\n

And, while the preshow has been updated just before the attraction\u2019s first new mission<\/a> since it opened in 2019, it makes no mention of the Mandalorian or any mission specifics (other than Hondo\u2019s singular focus of \u201cprofit,\u201d of course). Therefore, this new preshow dialogue is most likely a permanent change to Smugglers Run, as it can work with any storyline \u2014 meaning we may see more new missions added to the ride in the future.<\/p>\n

Watch our video of the updated Smugglers Run preshow<\/a> here:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t yet know if the new preshow has been deployed to Batuu West (a.k.a. Disneyland); we will update once we confirm.<\/p>\n
