A trackless dark ride based on Pixar’s Ratatouille is rumoured to open in Toon Studio at Walt Disney Studios Park as part of the 20th Anniversary of Disneyland Paris. Using GPS positioning technology from Pooh’s Hunny Hunt in Tokyo and Mystic Manor at Hong Kong Disneyland, the ride could see guests following Remy in a chase through the kitchens. An adjoining restaurant and shop are also rumoured. Plans show a new building at the back of the land, joined onto the existing Costuming building.

The first rumours came to light just a few short months ago and balloon height tests were only seen last week — but has the respected source of American business news organisation CNBC just let the RAT out of the bag, already?!
Is a lone helium balloon spotted by Cast Members flying over the back of Toon Studio a sign that the land is ready to expand already? As the recent rumours suddenly take flight, we explore the chances and the contenders for a Phase 3 of the Studios.
