Scarlett Johansson updated fans on the creative hurdles the movie Tower of Terror is facing.
The Tower of Terror is one of Disney World's most popular attractions, standing 199 feet tall and spawning multiple other iterations at Disney parks around the world.
In an interview with the Entertainment Weekly, the Black Widow star explained that she still can’t say much about the movie but that she and studio are working hard in adapting the haunted hotel-themed narrative from the 1994 Twilight Zone-centric drop tower attraction at Disney's Hollywood Studios park in Orlando, Florida.
"It's a hard nut to crack. Harder than you think, because the ride itself, there's some lore to it, but it's I don't want to say thin, but it is, kind of!" Johansson explains of the ride's plot.
The ride's plot is set in same universe as Rod Sterling’s iconic anthology TV series. It follows five souls who are transported to the Twilight Zone after boarding an elevator inside the Hollywood Tower Hotel that’s ultimately struck by lightning.
Johansson says that the ride's narrative "doesn’t have so much to dig into" in terms of making it out into a full Hollywood film, and thinks that kind of brief story works for a horror-tinged theme park attraction.
"That's part of the mystery of the ride. It's been a fun project to work on, because it's a blue sky project," explains Johansson.
She added, "It has also proved to be a hard nut to crack. But, we'll crack the case of it. It's taking shape!"
Meanwhile, her latest film Jurassic Park Rebirth is set to release in theatres on July 2.
