“I don’t think Warner Bros Abu Dhabi would be in Abu Dhabi if I wasn’t as big a fan as I am,” he tells me.

With the final licks of paint being put on the rides, The National spoke to Mohammed Khalifa Al Mubarak, chairman of Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority and Miral Asset Management, about the plans for the theme park. Rides will give park-goers the feeling of being chased by Wile E Coyote and a Riddler Revolution rollercoaster will spin and rock from side to side, while costumed characters will stop and pose with children throughout the park.
