All of the above was also announced today on the Disney Parks Blog:

It's a nice thing for them to do, but they sure didn't give much lead time on this.  Also, it's kind of lame to see that things like Captain Hook appearing with Peter Pan being  a special deal, when that used to be an every day thing in the park.
