Disneyland’s Elite Club 33 Is Getting Its Own Whodunnit Mystery Movie

Estimated read time 3 min read


Hidden right above Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean, the ride that started the Disney Parks attraction-to-movie pipeline, is the members-only Club 33, an exclusive destination for industry professionals, insiders, the rich and the famous, and their lucky friends. There’s plenty of mystique built into Club 33, something a just-announced mystery film aims to take advantage of.

Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy, along with Dan Levine and Dan Cohen, are producing the film through 21 Laps Entertainment, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The script will be written by Darren Lempke (Goosebumps), whose pitch is described as having Clue and Night at the Museum vibesand maybe also, we hope, a touch of Knives Out lite.

THR shared a description of the film, which is less about high-society people trusting friends with their membership for an opportunity to have the fanciest meal at Disneyland—though there’s an element of that. The fictional spin, which is perhaps tied to the Society of Adventurers and Explorers who weave Disney attraction tales and universes together, will follow “Kim, a young aspiring detective living in present-day New York, who receives a mysterious invite to the highly secretive Club 33. In this case, it’s a magical and exclusive dining club that exists outside of time and space. The club’s members are the greatest and most iconic members from the past: geniuses, royalty, and history-makers.”

Just the outlandish nature of that makes us intrigued and we would love to see someone like Ayo Edebiri be the detective and get into wacky Disney timey-wimey-ness (we can say that now since Doctor Who is on Disney+) with historical figures. And that’s not even the whole story: things will take a turn when “a murder is committed moments after her arrival [and] the patrons look to Kim to solve it. Kim, who despite her brilliance can’t seem to get out of her own way, must rise to the occasion and find a way to capture the criminal amidst the greatest minds history has to offer.”
