Disney starts work on live-action Space Mountain movie

April 20, 2024 by Matt Rodgers

We’ve set sail with Pirates of the Caribbean, been on a Jungle Cruise, and had two rides on The Haunted Mansion. Now Disney are looking around the park to see which other attractions they can adapt for the big screen, and have settled on Space Mountain. 

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec, the writers behind Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol and Prime Video’s Citadel TV-series, have been tasked with bringing the space-themed roller coaster to life. 

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but unlike other Disney rides Space Mountain doesn’t have any overriding narrative arc or characters associated with it, so Applebaum and Nemec have an entire universe to play with.

First introduced to Disneyland on January 15, 1975, Space Mountain was the world’s first indoor, fully enclosed roller coaster. It can be found in the Tomorrowland section of the park, an area which inspired Disney’s 2015 George Clooney-headlined flop of the same name. 

Let us know whether you’re rolling your eyes at yet another rollercoaster movie by heading to our social channels @FlickeringMyth…
