Walt Disney Imagineering spokesperson, Zach Riddley, has taken to Instagram yet again for a big reveal. Okay, it’s not that big of a reveal, but it’s still something! The new Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind coaster at Epcot is preparing to open. It should be the most expensive attraction ever built, at least in part because of construction starts and stops related to the pandemic. So Riddley’s reveal for the past twenty-four hours has been the exclusive first look at the uniforms the people running the attraction will wear! I know, the excitement is palpable.

Prepare yourself for something that can only be called…

Pediatric Nurse Meets Casual Japanese Baseball Player!!!

Today, we were able to reveal to our EPCOT Cast the new costumes that our Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind Cast Members will be wearing as they invite us to experience the Wonders of Xandar. Like all our experiences, our Cast have a role in our story. In this experience our Cast will be emissaries of Xandar as members of the Nova Corps, helping Guests along their adventure through the attraction. The costumes pull from style, color and iconography we have only gotten glimpses of within the Nova Corps and the world of Xandar. Now we get to step into this world for the very first time.

This is yet another milestone in our journey that is leading to May 27th as we are thrilled to be opening this attraction for our Guests soon!

For you Instagram novices out there, don’t forget to click “right” on the image to scroll through all the photos. Let’s just say the folks at the Columbia Harbor House as well as the Main Street Bakery would fight to the death for the chance to wear that getup instead of what they’re dealing with. So from a comfort standpoint, you’ve gotta say that Costuming knocked it out of the park.
