He’s heard rumors about a mythical creature deep within the temple — and he's got to see it for himself. So, he brings us along on the adventure... but will there be snakes? We'll just have to wait and see.^[2]

Behind the scenes[]

In September 2023, Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D'Amaro hinted that Indiana Jones was being considered as a replacement for Dinosaur, which utilizes a similar ride system to Disneyland's Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye.

On April 4, 2024, Walt Disney Imagineering released a clip on Instagram previewing upcoming changes to Animal Kingdom and included footage from a research trip to the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico to the study the "culture, art, and the archaeology of the Maya"^[3]
