So Walt Disney now own 39% of Sky!

well id rather have disney own sky than the murdochs but it does give them more money which isnt good. But you do wonder at what point a company becomes too big as if disney went bust tomorrow (yes its very unlikely) how many people would it directly and indirectly put out of a job. Not to mention i doubt films like say deadpool would get made with disney in charge its far too family unfriendly

It should also mean that the X-Men, The Fantastic Four (and related characters) can appear in MCU films.

My guess is that they will continue to release such films under the Fox Studios brand, whilst bringing a rebooted X-Men and Fantastic Four over to a unified MCU.

 

It could mean excellent things ahead!

not so sure i wonder if having to think of solutions to not having characters actually made films better than lets just throw in wolverine everybody likes him or just more closely remaking comics

Apparently Aliens is included in the deal as well. Every Xenomorph is now a Disney Princess.

 

Snow White and the Seven Facehuggers anyone?
