Lights… Camera… ACTION!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a nod to the “Hollywood that never was and always will be.” When it opened in 1989, it was a real, working television and movie studio built into a theme park setting. Numerous television shows and movies were filmed on location.
These days, the Studios no longer hosts active productions. Instead, the various soundstages have been transformed into attractions and experiences that allow guests to “step into” some of their favorite Disney movies.
