More details have been released about the upcoming ABC television special, “The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60,” including the host, performers, and an interactive way to watch from home.

Additionally, Harrison Ford (Han Solo in “Star Wars”) is set to give viewers a preview of the Star Wars-themed lands coming to both Disneyland Park and Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Florida.
