Above is an artists rendering of what might be possible of the new Paramount London. Paramount recently inked a deal with the BBC to build a theme park set to open in 2020 that will feature theme park rides of both Paramount projects (could be anything with Skydance, Paramount, etc- GI Joe, Star Trek, etc) and the BBC (Doctor Who, Sherlock, and more. What could this mean?! I will say, Universal Studios was my favorite part of Orlando, and this would be a REALLY great reason to head back to London. I wonder if my flat in Kensington is still standing? It’s been an age… Too cool! The 2 billion dollar park obtained funding last year and has been working with various locales to get permitting and give neighborhood access/infrastructure a boost to accommodate all the new global traffic. I think it’ll be a great thing for a town that could use a fresh boost of tourism.
The 2 billion is being provided by a Kuwaiti fund based in London, for more info, try Google, this isn’t happening for 6 years.
