    'Space Mountain' film to be penned by 'Cowboy Bebop' showrunners

    What's the story

    Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec, the creative duo behind Amazon's spy series Citadel and Netflix's Cowboy Bebop adaptation, have been selected to write Disney's live-action version of Space Mountain, per The Hollywood Reporter.

    Known for their captivating narratives, they are set to bring their storytelling prowess to this new Disney project.

    Space Mountain is a beloved space-themed indoor roller coaster that first opened at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida in 1975.

    Attraction history

    Space Mountain's global presence and unique challenge

    Space Mountain later became a key attraction in the Tomorrowland section of Disneyland in California in 1977.

    The ride has since been featured in five out of six Disney parks worldwide.

    However, unlike other Disney attractions such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain lacks a central theme or iconic characters.

    This presents Appelbaum and Nemec with the unique challenge of creating an entirely new narrative inspired by the ride.
