Disney Experiences Chairman Thomas Mazloum and Neil Patrick Harris posed for a photo in front of the Disney Experiences Showcase stage for D23, and it looks like the setup may hint at a potential Figment announcement. On August 14, Walt Disney Imagineering will host “An Inside Look at the Society of Explorers and Adventurers” at D23, unearthing a “newly rediscovered” artifact. Disney filed a patent for ride technology that fakes rising and falling through set design.

All this and more in today’s daily recap for Thursday, August 13, 2026.
