“Jackass Forever” director Jeff Tremaine has been set to produce “Stolen Kingdom,” a documentary feature about the three decades-long history of “wrongdoing and debauchery” at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.
First-time filmmakers Joshua Bailey and Sam Fraser are directing the project which will include the story of the theft of a valuable animatronic named Buzzy from the defunct Epcot attraction Cranium Command. Said animatronic disappeared from the resort back in 2019 and ended up for sale on the black market for close to $500,000.
Explaining his involvement in a statement, Tremaine says: “Josh and Sam somehow found me and introduced me to this story I found so compelling. I was inspired by not only this story but by these young filmmakers. Having been a part of some Disneyland misbehavior, I’m excited to be involved in this.”
Tremaine will produce through his own Gorilla Flicks banner much like he did with the recent docu-film “Bad Axe” which has become the most awarded documentary film of the year so far.
