- Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway to open in 2019
- Riders will go inside the "wacky" world of a cartoon short
- Attraction replaces The Great Movie Ride
Walt Disney Parks & Resorts Chairman Bob Chapek made the announcement during Disney’s D23 Expo Japan.
On the Mickey Mouse-themed attraction, riders will travel through a movie screen and experience the world of a cartoon short.
Riders will experience several “surprising twists and turns” as they encounter characters such as Goofy.
Disney is calling the attraction a “2 1/2 D” experience.
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway will feature a new story and a new theme song created for the attraction.
The attraction was first announced last July during the D23 Expo in Anaheim, California.
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway replaces The Great Movie ride, which closed in August.
Next year is set to be a big year for Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
In addition to the new Mickey-themed ride, the theme will welcome Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge—a 14-acre land. A version of the land will also open at Disneyland in California.
