Rumors Point to 2022 Opening Dates for TRON Lightcycle Run and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind

    As the dust settles on the financial situation of The Walt Disney Company, credible rumors are circulating on the WDWMagic forums that would suggest that both TRON Lightcycle Run and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will miss their “50th Anniversary” opening dates as Disney looks to continue to tighten their capital expenditures.

    According to forum poster Seanual757, Disney will continue to work on weather sealing the TRON Lightcyle Run gravity building until this December, when construction will see a pause until October 2021. The poster claims to be a vendor on the project and has posted credible information in the past. The pause in construction is reportedly a holding period of sorts as The Walt Disney Company continues to monitor attendance and cash flow into 2021 to continue to fund the project.

    To add to the rumors, known insider marni1971 has suggested a 2022 timeline is in the works for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind over at EPCOT. The E-ticket attraction promises to blast guests back to the big bang in an energy-themed attraction that aptly takes over the former Universe of Energy attraction space.

    Disney has previously publicly stated that both TRON Lightcycle Run and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will open in time for Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary in October 2021. Our hope is that Disney is able to provide an update on both projects sooner rather than later now that they’ve opened up ticket and resort sales that would cover the 50th Anniversary timeline.
