Disney have announced the replacement of Aerosmith on its famous roller coaster at the Hollywood Studios park.
Based in Florida, the ride is described on the website as featuring three inversions, two rollover loops, and one corkscrew. It also has a peaking speed of just shy of 60mph.
Named the Rock ‘N’ Rollercoaster, the attraction has had Aerosmith as the face of the ride for over two decades, while the band’s biggest hits including ‘Dude (Looks Like A Lady), ‘Walk This Way’, ‘Back In The Saddle’ and ‘Sweet Emotion’ play from the speakers.
Now, it has been confirmed that Steven Tyler and co. will be replaced on the ride, and The Muppets will now be the main attraction.
The news was confirmed by WDWMagic, and reportedly comes in conjunction with the closing of the MuppetVision 3D experience at the Hollywood Studios.
The decision to move on from Aerosmith may, in part, come as the band confirmed that their days of touring had come to an immediate end earlier this year. The decision was made following Tyler seriously injuring his voice at a gig.
Similarly, The Muppets released a rock-inspired series on Disney+ last year called The Muppets Mayhem, which included appearances from huge names like Mötley Crüe’s Tommy Lee and acting icon Danny Trejo.
In a statement from Disney, a spokesperson said (via Loudwire): “The Muppets will be taking over Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, teaming up with some of music’s biggest stars for a rockin’ music festival!”
The Rock ‘N’ Rollercoaster opened in July 1999, and a second version opened at the Walt Disney Studios Park in France in 2002. The latter was ultimately re-designed with an Avengers theme.
An official closing date for the Aerosmith-inspired Rock ‘N’ Rollercoaster has not been shared yet.
