Disney and TCM agree deal for revamp of Hollywood Studios attraction
POSTED 02 Dec 2014 . BY Tom Anstey
The ride will undergo a refurb in early 2015
Disney has agreed a deal with Turner Classic Movies (TCM) in a move which will see both companies work together to make changes to Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Orlando, while TCM will receive programming under the banner “Treasures From the Disney Vault.”

TCM will help Disney make changes to the Great Movie Ride - a combined dark ride and film sequence attraction which first opened in 1989 - to update the attraction with new features to improve the user experience including a new introduction among other features.

As part of the new deal TCM will receive "presented by" credits on the attraction's posters and banners. Disney will also provide TCM with vintage movies, cartoons, documentaries and TV series episodes to be used in a periodic programming block on the cable channel.

The Great Movie Ride will undergo the refurbishment in Q1 of 2015, with the new pre-show and post-show hosted by primary TCM host, Robert Osborne.
