Fast and Furious: Hollywood Drift coaster (Opening 2026)

[AlexanderMBush]

Hey, so long as the 2005 comeback gives us Gasolina and Extreme-Close Up vibes; I'll be content.

But in all seriousness, have to think they'd bring back Sung Kang. If you are gonna do a "Drifting" F&F attraction, you bring the Drifting expert. Honestly I have to think they atleast did *something*, if this ride had film production done during FX like how they did things for Supercharged.

It's coming next year.

I really hope so

SNW kept coming just the next year for what felt like 3-5 years so glad this is still on track

Jpland had a quick clip today that showed that some of the stage and bleachers of the Animal Actors building had been removed.

This is significantly less complicated and not build during covid.

This would be the coolest option, IMO. Han does make the most logical sense -- have the ride framed as him training "us" how to drift or whatever, and then I could see them slapping on something when you return to the station with Dom, etc., saying we did good and they welcome us to the family, similar to the end of Supercharged. There's just no way they're gonna open this with at least some of the cast involved in the queue/pre-show, but if it was just Han, I'd be happy, and take him over Diesel or Gibson being filmed just flatly reading lines off a cue card in front of a camera before lunch.

Any possibility they could just repurpose footage from Supercharge just to have some appearance from the big actors?

Then they would have to pay the actors.

It seems the scope of the attraction is more in line with HRRR than, say, Hagrid.

Asking as someone who has never been to UOR, but I'm guessing not as intense then? Could it still be thrilling though?

They are, at best, unreliable with their own sourced rumors.

Meanwhile, good on @Alicia for asking the real questions about 'em:

Even things I know are true, can be canceled. Everything is a rumor until confirmed by the company.

I'm honestly happy with that. F&F works best on simplicity and I'd actually much prefer the more simplistic style as opposed to Velocicoaster or Hagrids for the sake of the IP. Hopefully this means we have custom radios for each "car" to allow me to blast out our lord and savior Gasolina, to honor Extreme Close-Up.

I have never wanted anything more

Built by RmcTHO!

YES....and even with confirmation, as Disney has shown on multiple occasions, stuff gets cancelled and/or drastically altered.

If they go HRRR like in simplicity and innovation with the Intamin LSM being a controlled spinning; I want them to add neon underlit for the cars and radios for each seat.

Gimme Roll Like This, Gasolina, Tokyo Drift, and a custom soundtrack mix to excite your chase down and up the hill.

If the artwork was anything to go by the cars will have neon underlit. Hope that turns out to be true, will be very cool.

According to the TM I talked to today at Production Central they said their goal is to have the store close in Early April, so we shall see

So probably just leaving it open till they run through all the stuff lying around the warehouse. That's good to hear!

 

[alomar]

I don’t know who this guy/girl is and it may even be one of you on this site but they are stating that USH will be renamed to universal Hollywood resort, open two on-site hotels and announce all attractions until 2028. So we should be hearing if the coaster is still on soon. Personally I think it’s still on, fingers crossed!!

Universal is well known for not even announcing rides that are 70% built.....There is NO WAY they are announcing ride for up to 5 years out.

Alicia already handled this

Nvm

Apparently this might've been from the wind.

I'm continuing to go doomer on this project actually happening

 

[chris.g]

Yeah. Okay. Maybe I spoke too soon about Bourne actually going here lol…
