Disney has announced a Disney+ Original new series called “Behind the Attraction”, which will include 10 episodes, each an hour long and will give an exclusive glimpse “behind the curtain” of some of Disney’s most popular attractions by speaking directly with Disney’s Imagineers and other creative minds involved in bringing each to life.

The series is being made by Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia’s Seven Bucks Productions and The Nacelle Company.

The episodes will feature a deep-dive into the storied history of how these popular Disney attractions came to be, and how they’ve been refined as new ideas surface and technology evolved. It will also feature special interactions with the fans who lovingly obsess over every magical detail.

“Since 1955, when Disneyland first opened its doors, the rides and attractions have been impacting generations in such a fun and magical way around the world. This first-of-its-kind series will bring you behind the scenes to experience and celebrate how these beloved attractions creatively came to be. Hope to make Walt and the ‘mouse house’ proud with this one,”

Said Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who is the executive producer and co-founder of Seven Bucks Productions.

“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to lift the curtain and offer our global audience a captivating experience by bringing the stories behind these magical attractions to life, alongside our brilliant partners at Disney+ and The Nacelle Company,”

Added Garcia also the executive producer and co-founder of Seven Bucks Productions.

Behind the Attraction will also be executive produced by Hiram Garcia, Brian Gewirtz, and Kevin Hill from Seven Bucks Productions, as well as Brian Volk-Weiss, Robin Henry, and Cisco Henson from The Nacelle Company. Brian Volk-Weiss is the director.

“I have to pinch myself to make sure I’m not dreaming that I’m in business with Seven Bucks AND Disney+ at the same time—and on such a fun and exciting show!”

Said Volk-Weiss, executive producer and founder of The Nacelle Company.

Behind the Attraction is the quintessential Disney+ project. Best-in-class storytellers collaborating across multiple Disney units to mine and pull back the curtain on our rich Disney history,” added Dan Silver, Vice President, Originals—Unscripted Content, Disney+.

“Dwayne, Dany, and Seven Bucks have not only established themselves as some of the most accomplished and prolific producers across multiple genres, but have been long time valued members of The Walt Disney family. And Brian and Nacelle’s track record, mindset, and über-geekdom make them the ideal partners for this project. This is going to be a special series.”

No release date was confirmed for the new series, but what do you think of “Behind the Attraction“?

    I think it is a great idea. There are many great rides and shows that I think would make great episodes. Ones like the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean and Jungle Cruise would be great to not only see how they were made and their inspiraration but also how they changed over the years. I just hope it goes longer than 10 episodes so they can get into some of the attractions that are gone like 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Mr Toad's Wild Ride.

    Untill then, make sure to watch The Imagineers docu serie. It's very technical and complete and you will learn a lot on the attractions.
