Disney is unveiling an animatronic Walt Disney to celebrate Disneyland California's 70th anniversary this July despite repeated pleas from his granddaughter Joanna Miller. Joanna Miller told the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday that her beloved grandfather, who died in 1966, would have hated being turned into a talking mechanical replica. 'I think I started crying,' she said, recalling the moment she first saw the figure. 'It didn't look like him to me.' Miller said she voiced her concerns early on, sending a letter to Disney CEO Bob Iger when the idea was first proposed. She said she later met with Iger and the team responsible for creating the attraction, telling him: 'I strongly feel the last two minutes with the robot will do much more harm than good to Grandpa's legacy. "They will remember the robot - and not the man.' Despite Iger being 'very kind" and despite his promises to protect her grandfather's legacy, she said her request that they scrap the animatronic was ultimately ignored. Miller added it 'pains' her to call out the very company he created. The icon's granddaughter was speaking solely on behalf of her grandfather and mother, according to The LA Times.
