Aerial Photos Show Muppet*Vision 3D Facade Being Stripped for Globe Theater Transformation
The monsters are moving in fast at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. New aerial photos from bioreconstruct on X reveal major visible progress on the transformation of the former Muppets Courtyard area into the upcoming Monstropolis land, including dramatic changes to the old Muppet*Vision 3D theater facade and massive development work for the future suspended roller coaster.

The most eye-catching update comes from the former Muppet*Vision 3D building itself, where crews are actively stripping away exterior elements from the classic facade as retheming work ramps up. Scaffolding now surrounds large sections of the structure, and decorative details that once screamed “Muppets” are steadily disappearing behind construction walls and exposed framework.
Behind the scenes, construction crews are also making huge progress on the future Monstropolis roller coaster project.
New aerial overviews show an enormous concrete foundation now covering much of the coaster site, with towering black steel supports already rising from the ground. Several large structural framework sections are now visible, giving fans a better sense of the attraction’s eventual scale. Heavy equipment, cranes, and extensive excavation work continue across the massive show building footprint.
The size of the coaster area looks especially impressive from above, with huge sections of concrete pads stretching across the construction site like the factory floor of Monsters, Inc. itself. While Disney has not yet released full ride details, the attraction is expected to feature a suspended coaster inspired by the famous door vault chase scene from Monsters, Inc.

The latest photos also show backstage road modifications, utility work, and additional infrastructure development happening around the edges of the project site as Disney continues reshaping this entire corner of Hollywood Studios.
At this point, Monstropolis is no longer just blue sky concept art. Steel is rising, facades are changing, and the scream factory is officially under construction. 👁️🗨️⚡
