Tower of Terror, Speedway Lead Speculation Over Next Disney World Changes

Fan outlets link possible overhauls to space pressures plus a shift to franchise IP, with no specific ride plans confirmed by Disney.

Overview

  • Late-November posts from Disney Dining and DisneyFanatic present unconfirmed shortlists of legacy attractions viewed as potential targets for reimagining.
  • The rides most often cited are The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Tomorrowland Speedway, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, and the long-closed Stitch’s Great Escape.
  • Discussion around Tower of Terror leans on the 2017 retheme of Disneyland’s version to a Marvel attraction as precedent.
  • Stitch’s Great Escape has been shuttered since 2018, leaving a vacant Tomorrowland theater that is widely rumored for redevelopment.
  • Reporters point to large footprints, dated backstage themes, and Speedway’s noise and gas emissions as pressures for change, while Disney has made no specific announcements.
