The Jupiter’s Claim set created through production designer Ruth DeJong, then painstakingly dismantled in post-production and transported to Universal Studios Hollywood, where it was meticulously rebuilt on site, with original props and main points of the film.

It will be presented in the Universal Studios backlot alongside a number of other iconic film sets, adding Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds, Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho Psycho House and Robert Zemeckis’ Back to the Future Courthouse Square.
“I was visiting Universal Studios when I was 12 and they hypnotized me. This delight strengthened my hobby and my desire to one day participate in the metamagic of “background life”. Since then, I’ve had the ability to direct 3 films for Universal,” said Jordan Peele. “It’s a privilege to honor those collaborations with my studio partners, crew members and cast, and to be able to share the percentage of Jupiter’s Claim with fans. “
