Overview
- The coaster stopped operating for the full day on Monday, Aug. 31 and remained closed through Wednesday before reopening during Early Theme Park Entry on Thursday, Sept. 3.
- Multiple on-site reporters saw a ride vehicle stranded near the second launch and an open electrical/control panel during the outage, details that raise the possibility of an electrical or ride-control issue but do not confirm a cause.
- Disney has not issued a public statement explaining the multi-day shutdown and there were no My Disney Experience push notifications reported while the ride was offline.
- The closure removed a major family-friendly capacity point from Hollywood Studios and shifted guest demand onto other attractions such as Toy Story Mania!, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, and the park’s Star Wars and thrill rides.
- After the morning reopening, one outlet reported a brief later reclosure on Sept. 3; guests should check the My Disney Experience app for the ride’s current status before planning a visit.
