The attraction used the likenesses of numerous living and deceased actors to be recreated as audio-animatronics. The idea for the ride was expanded, and the Disney-MGM Studios went into official development. However, the newly assigned Disney CEO Michael Eisner and WDI president Marty Sklar decided the idea was strong enough to lead an entire new theme park. In a Walt Disney Imagineering book, it was revealed that The Great Movie Ride was originally planned as the main attraction in a show business themed pavilion at Epcot, which was to be called "Great Moments at the Movies". The Great Movie Ride directly inspired the creation of Disney's Hollywood Studios.
