By Rebecca Murray, About.com

The movie sets from "War of the Worlds," Steven Spielberg's 2005 version of the classic H.G. Wells story, have been added to the tour at Universal Studios in Hollywood.

Park visitors will get the chance to see the small town that's the focus of Spielberg's action-thriller. The studio tour tram will go through a key scene from "War of the Worlds" which shows a 747 jetliner crashing into the town. All around the town are signs of the attack by the alien visitors.

Steven Spielberg's "War of the Worlds" is a contemporary retelling of H.G. Wells' groundbreaking science fiction classic, which reveals the extraordinary battle for the future of humankind through the eyes of one American family fighting to survive. The film opens nationwide on June 29, 2005.
