While its primary function will be as a film and television production studio, worked into the facilities will be a number of shows and dark rides to satisfy tourists eager to go behind the scenes of China's growing entertainment industry and construction is progressing on the GGE-designed recreation of SHANGHAI BUND.
Attractions to be included are "film and television drop tower" (4,132 square meters), "Movie Film Roller Coaster" ( 5,894 square meters), “ Triad Gangster Chase Dark Ride" (6,370 square meters), "Hengdian Adventure Tour robotic arm" (6,515 square meters), Disaster Experience Theater (3,348 square meters), "Movie Secrets Museum" (2,100 square meters)
Triad Gangster Chase Dark Ride will be Inspired by Shanghai stories and legends of the infamous Triad. The attraction will take guests on a wild adventure through Shanghai’s dark underworld ( artwork below ).
According to the construction tender, Shanghai Bund will be completed before December 30, 2020.
"The Goddard Group was retained to design the massive "Shanghai Bund" movie studio and theme park resort (set to open in 2016,) located in Hengdian, China, a few hours from Shanghai. Mr. Goddard said, "As a film director myself, we were thrilled with this project on several levels. First, to re-create The Bund in its pre-war condition was a designer's dream assignment. We are literally recreating a major international city in its pre-war state, making it a suitable shooting location for a host of motion picture productions. In addition, we also melded many other areas of old Shanghai into this attraction, as part of an overall Shanghai studio backlot."
He adds, "We were able to work with the Hengdian Studios team to design a backlot that would greatly facilitate shooting within multiple areas, simultaneously. Beyond that, and based upon our many years of designing major attractions for Universal Studios in Los Angeles and Florida, we were able to blend-in a 'working studio tour' with themed attractions hidden within several sound stages. In this manner, the site will be able to function simultaneously both as a working movie studio and a tourist attraction."
Taylor Jeffs from Legacy GGE said "The new studio and movie park will be home to several large-scale themed rides, shows, and studio tours, designed to transport guests back to The Bund's golden era. These attractions are based upon classic Chinese motion picture genres and styles, and are sure to make this park's entertainment offerings truly unique.”
