National Geographic’s Disney Treasure Documentary Premieres Friday, March 28

Guests can get their popcorn ready, because National Geographic’s new documentary is heading to a screen near them. In the highly anticipated sequel to its popular special, “Making the Wish: Disney’s Newest Cruise Ship,” National Geographic goes behind the scenes to spotlight how Disney Cruise Line brings stories from beloved films and theme park attractions to life at sea like never before on the Disney Treasure.

The film gives a peek behind the curtain of the first Broadway-style adaptation of the Walt Disney Animation Studios’ hit, Moana, and travels to Mexico for an inside look at the creation of Plaza de Coco, an onboard restaurant inspired by the Pixar Animation Studios’ film, Coco. And guests won’t want to miss the unprecedented glimpse into the realm of illusions that Disney Imagineers build inside Haunted Mansion Parlor, an immersive bar themed to the Disney Parks’ Haunted Mansion attractions.
