Overview
- Disney confirmed the attraction will open to the public on May 26, 2026 after a week of cast, media, Annual Passholder and DVC preview windows.
- Imagineers kept the original coaster track and launch system but replaced the Aerosmith overlay with a new Electric Mayhem narrative, preshow scenes and re‑skinned vehicles.
- The relaunch adds Disney’s first motion‑capture Audio‑Animatronic of Scooter, a rotating five‑song onboard soundtrack with guest artists such as Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Hudson, Questlove and Def Leppard, and multiple celebrity cameos in the queue.
- Previews used a virtual queue that filled quickly, exposing operational frictions in crowd staging and sightlines that Disney is using to adjust show timing and guest flow.
- Early reactions are sharply divided: some guests praise the detail and Muppet integration while others lament losing Aerosmith and question putting family‑friendly characters on a high‑intensity coaster that many children cannot ride.
