Latest movie and TV treasures from Universal Studios vaults
The attraction still has plenty to see from the small and big screen though, from classic and contemporary movies, popular TV shows, and memorabilia from every genre from fantasy to sci-fi, comedy to stop-motion animation, biopics to period dramas.

This Summer Chadwick Boseman brought the James Brown biopic, Get On Up, to the big screen and this suit designed by Sharen Davis was on display from the movie about the iconic Godfather of Soul.If you're a fan of the hardest working man in show business, be sure to also check out this preacher costume worn by the actual James Brown in The Blues Brothers that was previously on display at this ever-changing exhibit.
Newspaper prop from TV's Psych
Sometimes you forget about the minutiae of detail that goes into making a TV show or movie, little things like shop signs, customised license plates and credit cards, just like this Santa Barbara Courier printed newspaper prop from TV's detective comedy-drama show, Psych, and its season four episode, 'The Head, the Tail, the Whole Damn episode'.If you're a fan of the series which ran for eight seasons until earlier this year, be sure to also check out these original costumes worn by James Roday and Dulé Hill in Psych.
Chore wheel prop and costume worn by Steve Carell
as Michael Scott in The Office
Another fan favourite show represented at the exhibit was the U.S. version of The Office, which starred Steve Carell as 'Michael Scott', a manager at a fictional paper company in Scranton, Pennsylvania.This is the outfit the actor wore in the fifth season episode 'Company Picnic' and the fun 'Chore Wheel' prop from the season nine episode, 'Roy's Wedding'.
If you're a fan of the faux documentary comedy series, be sure to also check out these other costumes and props that featured in The Office on display on previous visits.
