Disney has agreed on an exclusive deal to build attractions based on James Cameron’s “Avatar” at its theme parks - starting with Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Florida.
The first “Avatar” land, which begins construction in 2013 and is expected to open about three years later, is to be an immersive experience in a land spanning several acres. It will cost around $400 million (U.S.)
“The goal here is to put you on Pandora, and let you inhabit a space that you’ve only seen through the window of a movie theatre before,” Cameron told the Associated Press on Wednesday (21 September 2011) at a 3D entertainment conference.
Cameron said the attractions based on the top-grossing film of all time would bring the lush, bioluminescent planet of Pandora to life and would include animatronics and 3-D and holographic technology.
