NEW ‘Up’ Inspired Attraction Is Set To Make Its Theme Park Debut

Since its release on May 29, 2009, Up instantly became a Disney Pixar classic. The story follows Carl Fredricksen, a senior citizen who is grieving the loss of his wife, as he sets off on an adventure of a lifetime. He is accompanied by an unlikely troupe, including Wilderness Explorer boy Scount, Russel, and a talking dog, Dug.

Along the way, the group overcomes evil forces and creates a unique bond. Up teaches us that friendship can be found in the most unlikely places and that sometimes life is the greatest adventure of them all.

This film is incredibly loved by the Disney fandom at large, and many have been hoping for a Disney theme park attraction based on the ride. Now, fans will be overjoyed to hear that Disney has announced plans to add Up to one Disney Park attraction facing rennovations.
