Just telling you the direction I heard. Stunt-focused show, not a music show.
EDIT: Also, the post specifically said "Live Action". SING is decidedly not "Live Action"

Well, Mickey and the Magical Map is based in animation and is live-action. So it's not impossible.
But if it is stunts, then hm
There's always Bond. Stunt potential galore....How to Train Dragons too.
I think you play to your strengths, and Universal really has never been all that good at character-based shows. Plus, just from a diversification argument, 2019 with the following lineup hits a bunch of different demographics:
-SLoP replacing Shrek
-Stunt Show replacing T2
-New Potter E-Ticket
Bond is not a Uni franchise, which they highlighted.
This is a good point, I'm just struggling to think of what this may be.
Well shoot. The chopping block is showing no mercy this year.
I honestly have no idea, but my gut feeling says the theater portion will be enlarged. Otherwise I can't see a reason for this to take 2 years
B&T is not a Universal movie, which was what was stated by Universal's release about the closure.
Really bummed to be losing T2, but I can live with it if the replacement is as good or better. And I will be pleased that 3D Alley will be getting smaller. Curious that whatever is going to be replacing it is apparently going to take 18-ish months to get operational; that implies to me that the project has a certain level of scope and scale.
Ideally I’d like it to be in the same general genre: action-oriented, aimed more towards teens and adults, based on a popular, genre-y IP, etc. Even better if they tried to do something equivalent in the modern era to the groundbreaking hybrid show T2 was when it first arrived in the 1990s.
Please, not a musical show. For the love of God, not a musical show.
I'd love to see it (and it would fit in nicely next to Horror Makeup), but I would never categorize the Classic Monsters as "high energy."
Does this rumor actually have some heat behind it, or just pure conjecture at this point?
