Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson will reprise their roles as Harry, Ron, and Hermione in brand new scenes on the new 3D ride, MTV announced.
Alan Gilmore, the art director for the park's rides as well as the films, told MTV that "They'll be there! It's quite exciting. They're regrouping for one last adventure."
Opening this summer as part of the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Diagon Alley area in Orlando, the ride will take patrons on a thrilling ride through Gringott's cavernous vaults where they will meet Bellatrix Lestrange (Helena Bonham-Carter) and He Who Must Not Be Named.
Featuring a recreated scene from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 movie, Escape from Gringotts will be the main attraction inside the newly added Diagon Alley area.

"You get to see the events in the film from another prospective," Davis said in a Behind-the-Scenes video released by Universal. "The ride picks the adventure up just after Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Griphook have come through the waterfall of Thief's Downfall."
While the ride itself can be expected to be exciting enough, Universal and Gilmore has fully recreated Gringotts as seen in the films, from the intricate detailing of the exterior and interior of the lobby to the staff of goblins hard at work - which will fully move!
If that wasn't enough, J.K. Rowling's film adaption of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is set to hit theaters in 2016.
