A new film attraction has been announced for the Harvest Theater in Epcot's Land Pavilion:

Disney Parks & Resorts wrote:

“Awesome Planet,” an on-screen exploration of the realm we call home, showcases the spectacular beauty, diversity and dynamic story of our earth with all the grandeur guests have come to expect. The new films herald a bold new era for a theme park that is distinctly Disney in its view of the earth, its lands and its people.

With spectacular nature photography, immersive in-theater effects, and space sequences created by none other than Industrial Light & Magic (which provided the cinematic foundation for the Star Wars franchise), “Awesome Planet” will stir Epcot guests and deliver an environmental message that will resonate far beyond its final scenes.

Is the Harvest Theater the one where The Circle of Life with Timon and Pumba played?

Yes...

I am so happy they are finally starting to utilize all these empty spaces in EPCOT. I always enjoyed The Circle Of Life so I hope this one lives up to its predecessor.
