Universal Walls Off Poseidon’s Fury as Lost Continent Teardown Begins

The shift signals on‑site removal work after months of quiet prep in a land slated for major redevelopment.

Overview

  • Poseidon’s Fury, which was ringed by new construction walls Monday, is now cut off from guests as removal work gets underway.
  • The construction zone has grown beyond the long-closed Sinbad Theater, and on-site photos show drained pools and blocked paths around the Poseidon set pieces.
  • Permit filings from September 2025 outline plans to clear nearly five acres in this area, and Universal said last fall it was preparing the land for future developments.
  • Universal has not announced a replacement for The Lost Continent, and fan talk about a potential Pokémon land remains unconfirmed.
  • Poseidon’s Fury closed in May 2023 and, along with other Lost Continent closures, marks Universal’s move away from original, non‑franchise attractions toward large IP-driven projects.
