    I have a question about the new Now You See Me rollercoaster. Will it be indoors or outdoors?

    Concept art for the new coasters opening next year

    Lionsgate is turning its hit “John Wick” film franchise into a 10-story roller coaster ride at the Motiongate theme park in Dubai.

    The “John Wick” ride, and another coaster based on the “Now You See Me” film series, are expected to open at Motiongate early next year.




    The “John Wick: Open Contract” coaster will offer riders a choice as they board: They can help John Wick — the assassin played by Keanu Reeves in the 2014 movie and its two (so far) sequels — or they can hunt him.

    “You’ll get two different experiences depending on which path through the queue you choose to get on the ride,” said Jenefer Brown, executive vice president and head of global live, interactive and location-based entertainment at Lionsgate.

    Brown said the ride designers worked with the “John Wick” filmmakers and production designer in re-creating the world of the film. Specifically, guests will walk through a scaled version of the Continental — the setting in the movies where assassins gather.

    “I think what’s going to be amazing for fans is to have the opportunity to walk through the lobby of the Continental and experience different key moments in the settings that took place in the films,” Brown said. “This attraction in particular is really about setting the story by putting people in this very immersive environment, and then you really get the action as you get on the coaster. It’s 10 stories high, so there’s definitely a level of intensity that’s befitting of the ‘John Wick franchise that guests will experience.”

    As for “Now You See Me,” the “High Roller” attraction is also a roller coaster, but set in a casino location. (The 2013 film and its sequel are about “The Four Horsemen,” illusionists who pull off robberies during their performances.) “Guests will have the experience of walking through the casino and taking part in a heist that the Horsemen are in the midst of pulling off,” she said. “There will be a really great immersive story experience that leads guests on to this coaster.”

  9. Construction has also started on a new themed area at Lionsgate (Motiongate Dubai).


  10. We went last year and the How to Train Your Dragon coaster has to be the best indoor ride and we have been to a lot of parks. Looking to go early next year so hopefully the rollercoaster will be up and running. I know they seem to build things very quickly in Dubai but surely a big ask to get this completed this year as they state. Thanks for all the photos and info all very interesting.
