OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR DISNEY+ ORIGINAL SERIES, ‘BEHIND THE ATTRACTION'

 

Today, Disney+ revealed the official trailer for “Behind the Attraction.” Narrated by Paget Brewster (“Criminal Minds”), the 10-part series gives viewers an exclusive peek “behind the curtain” of the most beloved attractions and destinations at Disney Parks and Resorts around the world, from Jungle Cruise to "it's a small world" to the Haunted Mansion to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. “Behind the Attraction” delves into Disney Parks’ rich, amazing history using archival and never-before-seen footage and photographs to unveil how the attractions came to be and how they’ve been refined over the years as new ideas surface and technology evolves.  “Behind the Attraction” begins streaming on Wednesday, July 21, on Disney+ with five episodes at launch, and five additional episodes coming to service later this year.

 

The following episodes will be available on Disney+ on Wednesday, July 21:

 

• Jungle Cruise: Join a skipper for the story behind Jungle Cruise, and try to spot the backside of water! When Walt decided to create the original immersive attraction, he tasked Imagineers with building a river AND the mechanical animals to populate it. 

 

• Haunted Mansion: Welcome, foolish mortals, to the Haunted Mansion — enter if you dare! When Walt Disney developed the attraction, he didn't specify if it should be funny or scary, and so it became a perfect blend of both. 

 

• Star Tours: Lightspeed to Endor! A long time ago…Disney created Star Tours, a thrilling simulator attraction that takes guests to a galaxy far, far away. It inspired Imagineers to build a whole new land — Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. 

 

• The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror: Discover the ups (and downs!) of creating this gravity-defying attraction set in the eerie world of Rod Serling's renowned "Twilight Zone" television series. Then hold on tight as Imagineers reimagine the Disney California Adventure Park version as Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT!

 

• Space Mountain: You're about to hear the story of Space Mountain in T-minus 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…launch! Walt's vision of an attraction that simulates space travel was a design challenge Imagineer John Hench tackled head on, creating a signature structure in Disney Parks around the world. 

“Behind the Attraction” is executive produced by Dwayne Johnson (“Jungle Cruise”), Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia, Brian Gewirtz and Kevin Hill from Seven Bucks Productions, and Brian Volk-Weiss (“The Toys That Made Us”), Robin Henry and Cisco Henson from The Nacelle Company. Brian Volk-Weiss directs the series.

Disney Parks Metal Earth Collection available at Disneyland

I love the Metal Earth series and loved when they started carrying the Star Wars ones in Disneyland. I had always hoped they would start a Disney Parks series and they have! I found these in Disneyana on Main Street in Disneyland!

The Metal Earth series features sheets of metal that you bend and carefully put together to make stunning recreations of vehicles and buildings. Take a look at Space Mountain.

The Haunted Mansion is from the Magic Kingdom and not Disneyland. Remember it is a Disney Parks Collection and not just a Disneyland Resort Collection. Maybe we will get our mansion in the future!

I love the hearse from Haunted Mansion and the locomotive.

The Black Pearl is stunning. Sorry I didn't get a better picture of the monorail behind it.

Cinderella's Carriage is beautiful!

Cinderella's Castle from Walt Disney World.

Mickey's Funwheel looks awesome!

Sleeping Beauty Castle is where we end our look at the Metal Earth Disney Parks Collection. You can find all of these at Disneyana on Main Street.

Cost: 1 for $16.99 plus tax or 4 for $49.99 plus tax

With Disney Legend Bob Gurr in the Grizzly Peak Airfield at Disney California Adventure

Ran into Disney Legend Bob Gurr at the Grizzly Peak Airfield in Disney California Adventure. Bob was kind enough to not only take a photo with me but also take some time to discuss the newly re-themed area with me. for those of you who do not know, Bob designed pretty much every vehicle in Disneyland from Autopia, Haunted Mansion, the monorail, the submarine voyage and the Matterhorn bobsleds. Always a pleasure and an honor to talk to someone who had a huge hand in helping Walt with Disneyland.
