However in any other case, the overhaul has accomplished its job in giving Princess a highlight followers suppose it ought to’ve had way back. Like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, high-res screens all through the experience exhibit the forged in customized 3D animation to offer deeper immersion. Mixed with the brand new, authentic music from New Orleans songwriter PJ Morton that takes riders again to the movie’s successful rendition of the town’s Jazz Age, Disney’s clearly put the work in to ensure the revamp honors the upcoming 15-year-old movie.
