More Details Emerge For The Bourne Stuntacular at Universal Orlando
As we reported yesterday here on UniversalParksBlog, Universal Orlando’s latest attraction “The Bourne Stuntacular” kicked off technical rehearsals this week and information about this new offering is starting to trickle in!
We haven’t had an opportunity to see Jason Bourne yet for ourselves by the Orlando Sentinel shared a few interesting details that we thought we’d share with you!
As we previously mentioned, this new attraction takes place in the building that previously houses the Terminator attraction. According to the Sentinel, when visitors enter they’ll see a giant screen (130 feet wide by 28 feet tall to be exact) which combines with a mix of real and virtual actors, to bring the whole production to life. The Orlando Sentinel said that the production was expertly rehearsed and we did see a taste of this during a visit the stunt-men made to Today in the Fall:
In a cool detail that we’re excited to hear about, Julia Stiles who played Nicky Parsons in the original Bourne Ffilms briefs guests in the pre-show which is interspersed with footage of Matt Damon doing his Jason Bourne thing!

The old Terminator building has been reworked slightly to accommodate the new stunt show. This includes an updated stage and large props used during the show. But the real draw, according to the Orlando Sentinel is the giant screen which aids in that feeling of being transported back to some key scenes in the Bourne films like the rooftops of Marrakesh.
As we previously reported, the show went into technical rehearsal at the beginning of the week after the employee previews.
