Disney Officially Announces Revival of Previously Closed Attraction
Walt Disney World executives confirm revival of "Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser" attraction.
Original $400 million immersive experience closed after two years, deemed a financial disappointment.
The attraction, resembling a hotel, allowed guests to engage in Star Wars-themed activities at a high cost.
Room prices ranged from $5,000 to $6,000, making it a niche and expensive experience.
Disney wrote off $300 million of the $400 million construction cost.
The attraction opened in 2022 and closed in September of the previous year.
A new permit for construction was filed in January, but details about the project remain undisclosed.
Speculation suggests the space may become a hotel, restaurant, gift shop, or even the backdrop for a new Star Wars movie.
Despite the initial setback, industry expert Dennis Speigel believes Disney will repurpose the facility for a new venture.
