Sometimes when we’re wandering around Disney World, we spot some fun things going on.

Tower of Terror
And we’re not really talking about seeing Donald Duck watering plants, or Mickey in a cavalcade, or even a princess peeking out to say hello. A LOT of stuff gets filmed at Disney World for everything from TV shows to commercials, and if we’re lucky enough, we get a peek behind the scenes of that filming.
And that’s what happened today at Disney’s Hollywood Studios today. Now we’re not sure what they were filming, but we noticed a film crew setting up in front of Dockside Diner at the tables there. Interestingly enough, Dockside Diner is one of the few food locations at Hollywood Studios that hasn’t reopened yet.

Setting up, but for what?
But then FOOD came out, and well, we’re all about food, so our curiosity was even more piqued.

Food?!?!?!
At first, we thought the food was for catering, but it seems like the food is actually part of whatever they’re filming. (And yes, it was hard not to just yell, “Hey, are you going to eat that?”).

What is this?
Earlier, we saw people signing forms, so we assumed that guests were being asked to participate in the filming, maybe as background actors.

Filming
But then we heard a Cast Member say, “It’s the last shot of the day, we’re almost done” to the kids on set. So these may be professional actors, at least seated at the table.

Almost done?
So it looks like they were filming some actors as a “family” having a meal at Disney World? We’re not entirely sure, but if we find out, we’ll let you know! Needless to say, we’re intrigued! What do you think they are filming? We wanna hear your thoughts!
