Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, a Disney attraction featuring 'The Princess and the Frog' movie, will open on June 28 in Florida and California later this year.

The new attraction would be replacing Splash Mountain, inspired by the 1946 movie “Song of the South,” which has been criticized for portraying racial stereotypes.📺 Los Angeles news 24/7: Watch NBC4 free wherever you are

A similar attraction with a thrilling 50-foot drop on the ride will also be ready to open in Anaheim’s Disneyland later this year. Although the old theme of Splash Mountain was replaced, the iconic big drop remains in the new Tiana’s version of the water ride. The 52-foot-plunge-down at the end is one of the fastest rides at Disneyland, going 45 miles per hour.
