THAT’S AMORE – Pixar reimagines the signature casinos of the European Riviera in Disney.Pixar’s “Cars 2” with the fictional Porto Corsa Casino in Italy.

This concept art was created to help design the look of the film before the set was built in the computer. With all-new characters, comedy, heart and an action-packed tale of international espionage with Mater at its core, Disney .Pixar’s “Cars 2” hits the track on June 24, 2011 (U.S.), and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ and IMAX® 3D in select theaters. ©Disney/Pixar.
