Hi all,

This week has a been a bit quiet on the Character news front, with two small exceptions.

Drew on WDWMagic reports that Angel may start appearing with Stitch over at the Animal Kingdom, in place of Lilo. Lilo and Stitch currently meet on Discovery Island near Pizzafari and the entrance to Camp Minnie-Mickey.

He also reports that Jack Sparrow will make a return to the Magic Kingdom when the new movie is realised, complete with a new female character from the film – Blackbeard’s daughter! I know that this would be a very welcome move for fans who have been longing for the return of Captain Jack to the US Parks for some time. Jack does meet regularly in Paris and Tokyo. No word yet as to whether the new character will appear alongside Jack in those parks also.

In what seems like a move tied to the pending movie release and the return of the characters to the Magic Kingdom, the small seasonal restaurant El Pirata Y el Perico Restaurante also changed it’s name this week to Tortuga Tavern. Maybe the Jack and Blackbeard’s daughter are due to meet very nearby?...

Back at Character Central, our Facebook and Twitter followers were treated to a sneak peak yesterday to something very special indeed, due to be launched in the next few days – take a look below!

Yes, that’s right! We have added forums to the site! They are not currently available to the public, but we have been testing them, and had a few friends help us with that.

Be sure to keep your eye on the blog in the next few days for more information on it’s official launch!

Ok, that’s all for now,

Dan :)
