Jupiter’s Claim, the fictional theme park in Jordan Peeleupcoming sci-fi horror movie notakes permanent residence as part of Universal’s Studio Tour.
The new attraction, which will be on display at Univeral Studios Hollywood, was created by production designer Ruth DeJong and carefully disassembled after production before being reconstructed in Universal Studios Hollywood – complete with original props and other details from the movie. Fans can experience Jupiter’s Claim firsthand starting July 22, the same day as No’s theatrical release.
The opening of the Jupiter Claim marks the first time in Universal Studio Tour history that an attraction has been open night and day with the film’s release.
“I remember visiting Universal Studios when I was 12 years old and mesmerized. That experience cemented my passion and drive to one day participate in the meta-magic of ‘backlot life’. Since then I’ve been lucky enough to experience three to direct films for Universal,” Peele said in a statement. “It is a privilege to honor these collaborations with my studio partners, crew members and cast and to be able to share Jupiter’s Claim with fans.”
The fictional family theme park is based on the whitewashed history and aesthetic of the California Gold Rush. The park becomes a central location for the film’s characters, including Daniel Kaluuya’s OJ Haywood and Keke Palmer’s Emerald Haywood, as they attempt to investigate various mysterious and inexplicable phenomena.
The addition of the now permanent attraction to the tour was conceived long before its arrival in LA, with Peele, production partner Ian Cooper and Monkeypaw Productions working with Universal Creative at Universal Studios Hollywood to devise integration with the Studio Tour early in production to ensure accuracy and authenticity .
