At the moment, the movie will focus on five people who attend a fancy hotel that have their elevator struck by lighting and the end up disappearing as a result.
Twilight Zone will join the long list of Disney park rides that have been adapted into movies. Tomorrowland, The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Jungle Cruise starring The Rock.
The original version of the attraction opened at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (at Walt Disney World in Florida) in July 1994, and was the basis of the 1997 made-for-television movie Tower of Terror where several scenes were shot at the actual attraction. Since then the Tower of Terror designs and attractions are located in Disneyland Resort in California, Tokyo Disney Resort in Japan and Disneyland Resort Paris. Apparently, Disney sought to use the popular attraction to boost attendance at the respective resorts’ struggling new theme parks.
