Get ready, Disney fans! If you’ve always dreamed of setting foot in Disneyland’s exclusive Club 33 but never had the chance, the magic is coming to the big screen! Disney is turning the enigmatic charm of Club 33 into a movie. Scriptwriting duties have been handed over to Darren Lemke, known for his work on “Goosebumps” and “Shazam.” This new cinematic adventure is brought to life by Shawn Levy, the director of “Deadpool & Wolverine,” alongside producers Dan Levine and Dan Cohen of 21 Laps Entertainment, famous for hits like “Stranger Things.”
The film promises an intriguing narrative, centered around an aspiring detective invited to the prestigious Club 33. The club, depicted as a magical locale filled with iconic historical figures, becomes the stage for a thrilling murder mystery. Embracing the tones of classics like “Clue” and “Night at the Museum,” this story is sure to enthrall audiences with its blend of mystery and whimsy, a combination Disney executes so well.
Club 33, a sanctuary for VIPs since its opening in 1967, is as secretive as it is legendary. Nestled in the heart of New Orleans Square near the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, it offers a sanctuary amidst the park’s bustling energy. The idea was inspired by the VIP lounges Walt Disney encountered at the 1964 New York World’s Fair. Today, membership to Club 33 requires a whopping $25,000 initiation fee and $10,000 annually, with a waiting list that spans over a decade. It’s rumored that famous faces like Tom Hanks, Elton John, and Christina Aguilera are among its distinguished members.
Disney has a history of turning its theme park attractions into blockbuster films, with successful endeavors like “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Haunted Mansion,” and “Jungle Cruise.” There’s no slowing down, as projects based on Space Mountain, Big Thunder, and the Society of Explorers and Adventurers are already in the pipeline.
