MuppetVision 3D is closing for the new land of Monsters, Inc. Land, but the characters will move to Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster

MuppetVision 3D is officially closing its doors at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to make way for the upcoming Monster Polus attraction. But the familiar characters won’t be going too far as the Muppets have a new home, replacing Aerosmith as the star of the rock ‘n’ roll coaster in the adjacent section of the park on Sunset Boulevard.

Walt Disney World announced news on Friday that Monsters, Inc. Land, which was first announced earlier this year on D23is taking over the Muppets Courtyard site to make way for Monstropolous, Disney’s first suspended attraction to recreate the iconic doorway scene.

Fans can expect to experience the interactive Monsters, Inc. world on the south side of the park, which will feature an all-new theatrical experience, as well as restaurants and shops.

What’s Happening with MuppetVision 3D at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

After deciding to scrap MuppetVision 3D to make way for monsters, Disney Parks said it will once again team up Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy and their friends to take over the rock ‘n’ roller coaster.

“We know many of you share our love for The Muppets and know their energy will be perfect for this ride. It will also be the first Disney attraction to ever feature “The Muppets,” the announcement states. The attraction will feature new attraction-themed music and a variety of merchandise will be available for purchase along Sunset Boulevard.

The announcement said there was “still plenty of time” to enjoy the current version of Aerosmith and MuppetVision 3D’s super-stretched limousine “before their final curtain call,” but did not provide a final date for the attractions’ showing.

“As we move forward with these changes, we are having creative conversations and exploring ways to preserve the film and other parts of the experience for fans to enjoy in the future,” the Parks Blog said.

The MuppetVision film, which was digitized over a decade ago, is historically significant as it was the last project Jim Henson worked on before his death in 1990.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Good Morning America.
