That tweet came after Tuesday’s tweet showing off footage of Disney’s realistic, retractable lightsaber set to debut alongside the Starcruiser hotel.

According to Disney World’s website, Starcruiser will be a a “2-night, all-immersive adventure.” The hotel is designed to be the Halcyon starcruiser from the Star Wars universe. Staying at the hotel includes dining experience and visits to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney World.
When guests check in they will enter a “Launch Pod” where windows depict them leaving Earth and jumping into hyperspace to reach the Halcyon. Inside the hotel, the Crown of Corellia Dining Room offers breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. While aboard the Halcyon, guests might encounter any number of Star Wars characters.
And guests will also get to see a new, realistically designed lightsaber designed by Walt Disney Imagineering Research and Development.
