Jamie Lee Curtis Wants To Make A Carousel of Progress Movie
Jamie Lee Curtis has a long and storied history with The Walt Disney Company. Long before starring in a Disney film, Curtis starred in the Ellen’s Energy Adventure attraction at EPCOT (stupid Judy!). Subsequently, she would go on to appear as Tess Coleman in Freaky Friday and Vivian Ashe in Beverly Hills Chihuahua.
Now, Curtis is set to star as Madame Leota in the upcoming Haunted Mansion. Based on the popular Disney attraction, Haunted Mansion will bring the 999 happy haunts to the big screen.
While we are still a couple of weeks away from the release of Haunted Mansion, Jamie Lee Curtis may already be looking forward to her next Disney movie!
What Movie Based on an Attraction Would Jamie Lee Curtis Make Next?
In a recent video shared by the Disney Studios TikTok account, Jamie Lee Curtis was asked “If you could do another movie based on a Disney ride what would it be?” For her answer, Curtis chose a Magic Kingdom classic.
In response to the question of what her ideal movie would be, Curtis responded:
“So, my favorite ride/attraction was something called the Carousel of Progress,” Curtis said, “which is only now at Disney World. But it was the GE Carousel of Progress, and I loved it. So I would want to make a movie of the Carousel of Progress, which is basically time travel. It’s sort of about technology and it’s changed over the years.”
A True Disney Classic
The Carousel of Progress has been entertaining audiences since it debuted at the 1964 World’s Fair. As Curtis references, the attraction then moved to Disneyland before reaching its final home in the Magic Kingdom.
The timeless tale of progress has had Walt Disney World fans looking forward to a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow ever since!
