Are we sure the hub won't be based on an IP?
There is a reason why I'm asking are for this question.
One thing Comcast has applauded themselves in on this "Symphony" thing where everything across all areas of the business help each other through synergy. And we are seeing it already with Jurassic World. Thanksgiving last year they had the NBC Lego Jurassic World Special, then they announced the ride opening in Hollywood. Right before the ride opened they mentioned the Netflix series, and then right after the Nickelodeon Lego Jurassic World show was announced. After that, now we have the Jurassic World short film with the upcoming film likely opening in or around the same time Florida opens their attraction.
Now, Look at the four worlds: Super Nintendo World, UCM, HTTYD and Fantastic Beasts.
Each one of those have other things outside the park to energize the fanbase. (Mario with video games and the movie which comes out in 2021 and possibly sequels which also maybe in the works, UCM with Invisible Man and the Paul Feig film, Fantastic Beasts and all the potter projects, it looks like Universal still plans to cash in on HTTYD with three spinoff shows in development with one coming out on Netflix this year targeted for preschoolers).
Universal has two celestial based films in development....one is a four quadrant called Space Race ( which ties into Dueling Coasters)
Universal Lands Daniel Kunka Space Race Spec; Dan Trachtenberg To Direct – Deadline
As well as a film based off a humorous novel called Space Opera
Universal Options ‘Space Opera’ For Marc Platt & Colin Trevorrow To Produce – Deadline
As they said in previous interviews, each unit of the company meets every quarter so the parks and UC know all about the film lineup that Universal has upcoming and the plans for the films. Just something I noticed and would fit the hub.
