When they brought Peyton Reed * Later known as the director of Bring It On and Ant-Man, among others and Mark Cowen to help rewrite the script, the duo suggested that bringing back Biff Tannen as an antagonist would strengthen the connection to the movies. Universal considered having Doc Brown's Evil Twin brother, also portrayed by Christopher Lloyd, as the antagonist.Back to the Future creators Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale found this too insubstantial a concept for a ride inspired by the movies. The original concept consisted of nothing more than Doc Brown flying guests through different time periods.The only remnant of the original plan was the trolley house design of the attraction's entrance. Earthquake: The Big One was first envisioned to be a trolley ride through a crumbling San Francisco, but with both financial and technical limitations, the decision was made to duplicate the same Earthquake subway scene from the Hollywood Studio Tour.In the end, this turned out to be a good thing for Universal, considering that the idea of making Central Florida into a 'Hollywood East' never quite took off the way people were hoping. When the announcement of Disney-MGM Studios came with the Backlot Tour being mentioned as the main attraction, the entire project was retooled into placing emphasis on the theme park itself instead of the studio side, out of fear of Universal being accused of ripping off Disney's idea. The park was supposed to be identical to Universal Studios Hollywood, with the park placing an emphasis on the production backlot and having a tram tour as the main attraction.A rather unique mostly-indoor Universal Studios park was being developed for Moscow, but was later scrapped for reasons unknown.After many years of silence regarding the park, Universal officially announced its cancellation in 2016. However, the entire project was suddenly put on hold due to the major recession that had hit Dubai. A Universal Studios park had been in development for the Dubailand complex and managed to get very far along in development, to the point that much of the construction site had been laid out and the Universal archway for it was built.Universal had tried to build a theme park in South Korea for a long time, but after repeated delays, the project was cancelled in the mid '2010s.When Euro Disneyland began facing headwinds during its development, Universal decided against trying to directly compete as closely, and this ultimately led to Universal purchasing Port Aventura near Barcelona instead. In response to Euro Disneyland, Universal wanted to build a Parisian park of their own, and even got as far as purchasing land near Melun, a town on the southeastern outskirts of Paris' metropolitan area.Fast forward to the 2010s, and with NBCUniversal under the new corporate heads at Comcast, most of the land was bought back and the area would serve as the grounds for what would ultimately be Universal's third park, Universal's Epic Universe.

Unfortunately, before the second area could begin construction, the September 11 attacks and the economic recession that followed it caused major financial losses at Universal, forcing them to sell off the patch of land that would have been slated for the area.

The second area would sit down the road from the main resort, and would consist of a country club, golf course, another CityWalk district and an unknown theme park(s).
