1. A new ride for Islands of Adventure

Universal Orlando is yet to confirm what's coming after Diagon Alley, but has made clear that the spending will continue. With Universal Studios Florida set for a major attendance boost, attention is likely to switch to neighboring Islands of Adventure. Specifically, an area close to the existing Jurassic Park island has been earmarked as the site for a major new attraction - with construction work set to begin imminently.

Some rumors have pointed to a new ride themed around Jurassic World, the fourth movie in the series that it set for release in 2015. Suggestions have included an on-rails jeep ride similar to that seen in the original film (although this is probably too close in plot to the existing Jurassic Park River Adventure to get the go-ahead), a roller coaster set in an amber mine and an indoor, movie-style attraction.

However, the strongest rumors are that a new land dedicated to King Kong is on its way to Islands of Adventure. This would be themed around Skull Island, the home of the giant ape in the movies. The rumors are that the headline ride will not be a simple recreation of King Kong 360 3-D at Universal Studios Hollywood. Instead, it could be a major dark ride with outdoor sections featuring high-capacity, safari-style vehicles.

Permits have been filed (as revealed by Parkscope) that go by the vague name of "Project 340" - which has been tossed around as the code name for the King Kong project.

Given the construction timescales involved, Skull Island will probably debut at Islands of Adventure in 2016.
