WOW! The Facade of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT Looks Amazing
For the past couple of years, we’ve been meticulously following the progress of the new Guardians of the Galaxy-themed coaster coming to EPCOT next year. Most of the time the construction of Cosmic Rewind has felt as if it was moving at a snail’s pace. But today, we’re reach a bit of a milestone of sorts.
Disney Imagineer Zach Riddley recently took to Instagram to give us a look at how the façade of the new building is coming along and all we can say is WOW! This is the first time we can almost envision the experience. Take a look at his post below:

As Riddley says in his post, it really feels as if a little piece of Xandar has arrived right here at Walt Disney World! This building was previously the home of Ellen’s Energy Adventure and it has been a long process but the transformation is really starting to come together.
As we previously mentioned here at MickeyBlog this new area will be the known as the Wonders of Xandar Pavilion.
As the backstory goes, Xandar and Nova Corps are coming to EPCOT to share their culture and technology.
The star you see so boldly displayed on the front of the building is a symbol frequently used by Xandarians in their architecture, spaceships, uniforms and more!
An example of fabulous Imagineering is that the very unique color-shifting material on the exterior of the building gives a dynamic quality to the main façade!
For those unfamiliar, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will open in 2022 and will have the distinction of being the first family-friendly storycoaster with special ride vehicles the launch backwards. Oh and what’s not to love about a storyline that has you helping Star-Lord, Gamora and the rest of the gang to save the Galaxy!?
The attraction is slated to launch in the Summer of 2022!
