A new thrill roller-coaster is coming to EPCOT in Walt Disney World. The first blast off for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is happening on May 27th. I'm so here for this! I went to the Marvel campus in California and it didn't disappoint. Super excited to see what Disney has in store for us now.
According to Disney, "Xandarians traveled from their homeworld in the Andromeda Galaxy to Earth – or Terra, as they call it – to create the Wonders of Xandar pavilion, inviting EPCOT guests to learn more about their people and their advanced technologies. That is … until something goes wrong and the Xandarians call the Guardians of the Galaxy for help".
There are also some really cool firsts for Disney. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is the first coaster attraction at EPCOT. *SPOILER ALERT* Also, the first reverse launch for a Disney coaster and the first Disney Omnicoaster, where vehicles make controlled rotations to always keep guests focused on the action.
The coaster will be opening on Memorial Day weekend so you know the lines will be long, but having gone on Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT at Disneyland, trust me, the 2+ hour line is absolutely worth it!
