The scene has now been updated to depict pirates selling stolen goods, with Redd joining the motley crew.
“In this scene, the familiar redhead figure has switched sides to become a pirate named Redd, who’s just pillaged the town’s rum supply and has something to say about it,” said Kathy Mangum, portfolio creative executive at Walt Disney Imagineering.
