Hey Star Wars-loving friends! If you’ve been enjoying all the renewed attention on a galaxy far, far away thanks to The Mandalorian & Grogu, the fun is still rolling on. We’ve seen exciting new merchandise, themed snacks, and fresh experiences arrive in the Disney Parks, but now there’s something extra special for guests visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios: brand-new Magic Shots from Disney PhotoPass!
Now, if you’ve never stopped for a Magic Shot before, let me tell you, you are missing out on one of the most enchanting little extras in all of Disney Parks. Disney PhotoPass photographers can add beloved characters, magical effects, and fun surprises into your family photos afterward, creating moments that feel straight out of a Disney movie. Some of my favorite Disney memories are tied to these photos, especially one from years ago where my daughter looked like she was gently holding Tinker Bell in her hands. Those are the kinds of keepsakes that somehow become even more priceless as the years go by.

But back to Star Wars! Guests visiting Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge can now enjoy two new Magic Shot opportunities inspired by The Mandalorian and Grogu. It’s time to step deeper into the Star Wars story and these new photo opportunities look like such a fun addition to an already immersive land.
While I’ve never hidden the fact that Star Wars isn’t necessarily my personal favorite Disney franchise, there’s something incredibly special about walking into Galaxy’s Edge. The atmosphere completely shifts around you in a way that’s difficult to describe until you experience it yourself. From the soundscape to the towering ships and bustling marketplaces, it genuinely feels like you’ve stepped into another corner of the universe where these stories suddenly become real. Disney creates immersion better than almost anyone else, and these new Magic Shots feel like another perfect little touch to make your day even more memorable.
