Universal Studios Florida is going through one of its biggest attraction shakeups in years, and two familiar rides have now reached the end of the road.One disappeared last year. The other officially joined it on August 17, 2026.Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit and Fast & Furious: Supercharged are both permanently closed, leaving Universal with two substantial pieces of real estate to rethink. But while guests already know exactly what will replace one of them, the future of the other could take much longer to figure out.The timing makes the situation particularly interesting.Credit: UniversalConstruction on Universal’s new Fast & Furious roller coaster is moving quickly, and the coaster track is now complete. Meanwhile, Universal has removed Supercharged from its app and website without announcing what will eventually take over its massive building.For now, Universal Studios Florida has one replacement racing toward completion and another that remains a much bigger mystery.Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit Is Already Giving Way to Something BiggerThe first piece of this transformation started with Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit.The roller coaster permanently closed in August 2025 after operating near the front of Universal Studios Florida for roughly 16 years. Its removal immediately created room for Universal to build something entirely different in the same general area.We know what that project is.Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift is currently under construction and expected to open in 2027. The new roller coaster will bring the Fast & Furious franchise back into the spotlight at Universal Studios Florida, although in a dramatically different way.And construction has already reached a major milestone.The final piece of coaster track was installed earlier this month, meaning the entire track layout is now complete.That doesn’t mean the attraction is nearly ready to open. Universal still has plenty of work ahead as crews finish the surrounding areas, ride systems, theming and other elements necessary to prepare the coaster for guests.Still, seeing the track completed makes the replacement of Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit feel much more real.But just as one Fast & Furious attraction moves closer to opening, the franchise’s previous Orlando attraction has officially disappeared.Fast & Furious: Supercharged Is Permanently ClosedFast & Furious: Supercharged gave its final rides on August 16 before permanently closing on August 17.Its last night included an annual passholder-exclusive after-hours event, giving some guests one final opportunity to experience the attraction.Universal didn’t waste much time making the closure look permanent, either.By the following morning, the attraction’s name had apparently been painted over on the entrance facade. Universal also removed Supercharged from both its official website and Universal Orlando app.The closure ends a surprisingly short run for one of Universal Studios Florida’s largest attractions.Fast & Furious: Supercharged opened in 2018, meaning it lasted less than a decade before Universal permanently pulled the plug.Its departure also creates an unusual situation.Universal is essentially replacing its old Fast & Furious experience with Hollywood Drift, but that doesn’t answer the bigger question surrounding the Supercharged building itself.Something eventually has to happen there.The question is what — and when.Credit: UniversalUniversal May Not Be in a Rush to Replace SuperchargedAnyone expecting Universal to immediately demolish Supercharged and start building another major attraction may want to temper those expectations, according to reports from Orlando Park Stop.Universal hasn’t announced an official replacement.The Supercharged building occupies a substantial footprint in the San Francisco section of Universal Studios Florida. Bringing an entirely different franchise into that space could require more than simply changing the ride film or replacing a few sets.Universal could potentially need to rethink the building’s exterior and even portions of the surrounding land depending on what property takes over.There is another factor to consider: Universal already has a lot happening around Orlando.Hollywood Drift remains under construction. The former Lost Continent area at Islands of Adventure is undergoing major demolition. Universal also has permitted projects moving forward at Epic Universe.That could make leaving the Supercharged building alone for a while the easiest option.In fact, Universal is already using part of the former attraction’s queue and facade area for Halloween Horror Nights, making an immediate demolition project unlikely.So what eventually replaces it?That’s where things get interesting.Could Universal Turn the Building Into a Flexible Attraction Space?One theory would allow Universal to reuse much of what is already inside the Supercharged building.Instead of immediately creating another permanent ride, Universal could potentially transform the location into a flexible attraction space.Under this rumored concept, the existing 360-degree screen tunnel and ride system could remain while Universal periodically changes the media and experience for limited engagements.Think of it as an attraction building capable of hosting different properties rather than belonging permanently to one franchise.That could give Universal an opportunity to test concepts without committing to a massive redevelopment of the entire San Francisco area.Back to the Future has been mentioned in online discussions surrounding possible temporary overlays, although nothing has been confirmed.There is also another Universal property getting attention elsewhere.Could Twisters (2024) Enter the Picture?Universal Studios Hollywood could eventually provide a clue, although Orlando shouldn’t necessarily expect the same solution.The Hollywood park removed its own Supercharged segment from the Studio Tour in March 2025 as it prepared for its version of Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift. Universal still hasn’t announced an official replacement for that portion of the tour.However, recent rumors have pointed toward Twisters (2024).One rumored concept would use a new 360-degree tunnel with large LED walls rather than traditional projectors. That setup could potentially allow Universal to combine brighter digital environments with physical sets, props and animatronics.Universal hasn’t confirmed the Twisters (2024) rumor for Hollywood, much less Orlando.And Orlando presents a very different situation.The former Supercharged attraction isn’t simply one scene along a Studio Tour. Universal Studios Florida has an enormous dedicated attraction building and surrounding themed area to deal with.That gives Universal more possibilities, but it also makes a complete replacement considerably more complicated.Credit: Universal PicturesTwo Universal Rides Are Gone, but Their Stories Aren’t OverHollywood Rip Ride Rockit and Fast & Furious: Supercharged are officially part of Universal Studios Florida history.For Rockit, the next chapter is already taking shape.Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift has risen in its place, the coaster track is complete, and Universal plans to open the new attraction in 2027.Supercharged is different.Universal hasn’t announced its replacement, and there are reasons to believe the massive building could remain largely untouched for some time. The source reporting on the closure notes that Universal Orlando appears to be in no hurry to reveal what comes next and raises the possibility that the building simply sits vacant for a period.A flexible attraction space remains one possibility. A completely new franchise could eventually take over. And Twisters (2024) provides an intriguing idea if Universal decides to explore similar concepts on both coasts.But those possibilities remain rumors and theories.The post Universal Studios Permanently Closes Two Rides, Orlando Replacements Come Forward appeared first on Inside the Magic.
