Among new points of interest on the tour, guests can see the exterior of James Dean’s apartment where he lived while working on the lot, a rose garden that previously served as a tennis court for former company president Jack Warner, as well as the Eastwood Scoring Stage which was built in 1929 and has since been the place where hundreds of productions have been scored.

There’s also a pitstop at the “Property House” which is home to more than half a million props from film and television.

“For 100 years, Warner Bros. has stood for the very best in moviemaking and TCM has continued to spotlight the legacy of the studio with incredible program offerings throughout its 30 years,” said studio heads Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy in a joint release. “We are thrilled movie lovers from around the world can visit the iconic Burbank lot to experience the TCM Classic Films Tour and celebrate the rich history of the studio’s contributions to cinema.”

Danny Kahn, vice president and general manager of Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood, said the partnership with TCM was a natural fit for the studio tour because it “showcases and preserves” beloved classic films found in the WB library and the Studio Tour provides guests with the opportunity to connect with the films on a deeper level.

The TCM Classic Films Tour started service on Tuesday following a sneak peek and grand opening event that was held on the Burbank lot.
