The sentence

At D23, Disney World finally confirmed it is building Villains Land, an area for its baddest characters.

Show the five-word answer
DisneyWorldconfirmedVillainsLand

Kept 'building'? Say it out loud. Disney World building Villains Land. Something is missing, no? 'Building' only works with 'is' next to it, and little words like 'is' never get a spot. 'Confirmed' does not need any help. This is real: Villains Land is coming to Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, with rides for Maleficent and the Magic Mirror.
