Disney Not Planning Another Marvel or Star Wars-Level Acquisition Anytime Soon

“Well, I never say never,” Iger told BBC Radio’s The Media Show when asked if he might broker another mega-acquisition before his contract expires at the end of 2021. “But I think given the fact we’ve only recently made a big one [Fox], and we’re still absorbing that, and given the fact that I don’t have much time left in this role, I think it’s probably unlikely that another big one occurs.”

sounds like we're going to have to wait maybe till 2021 at least to see if Disney makes a play for Spider-Man. Would Spider-Man be considered "another big one"?

IAmSabrina:

Ugh...

5/10.

Looks like a tv movie. No iconic costumes shown. No display power for Cecilia Reyes. The Wolfsbane wasn't in full form.

Obviously I want them to prove me wrong but for now, this trailer is a fat ...MEH..

1000WaysToLive:


I think Sony is going to wake up and end up selling Spidey back to Disney.

1000WaysToLive:
I'm not sure Spiderman would be considered big after getting Fox Studios.


Plus Spidey kind of falls under Marvel.

I think Sony is going to wake up and end up selling Spidey back to Disney.

[They just don't have to much going on for them right now.

Miramax's library of film is on sale. 800+ titles, full of AA winners and critically well received movies that would greatly add to Hulu's library especially as NBCU and Warner pull their content. Cost? About 325MM. Honestly a much better - and cheaper - purchase than SM movie rights.

Do some of you think Sony will make Venom 2 R-rated now after Joker proved to be so successful?

IAmSabrina:

I thought MiramaX was owned by Disney. I don't really know a lot of MiramaX movies butI can guess having those 800+ titles would be good for any streaming services.

MJBOLT:

as long as Spider man is still a box office power house,Sony wont sell it back.

it's my twin brother

Hulk616 that useless coconut head is cooling himself on DC threads... Dude is a DC fan now

Darkprime:

They used to. Sold them, but now it's on sale. Honestly it'd be good to have Hulu buy them and put the debt on Hulu. Movies include Pulp Fiction, No Country for Old Men, and many others. It's a good library.

This is a very very wrong and uneducated assumption,please stop

AfricaGalactic:

The Miramax library is certainly strong. But I question whether or not its 90s-centric slate would drive viewers to Hulu in sufficient numbers to justify the large expense. It would probably make more sense to invest the hundreds of millions in new potentially bingeable content. And does The Mouse want to be tied to Miramax again after being blamed for funding Weinstein's horrifying behavior during the label's heyday?

I wouldn't be surprised if, within a few years, both Hulu and ESPN Plus are consolidated into the Disney Plus App, joining Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic as the top brands for the streamer.

Ok. I take back what I said about Sony selling Spider-Man, but outside Spider-Man, Sony really don’t have much going for them.

They’re pretty lacking overall of reliably successful IP.


Men In Black flopped, so did Ghostbusters(it’s a coin toss if the reboot this year will be successful) and they don’t have Bond anymore. Not to mention Charlie’s Angels was a massive failure.

Jumanji is really all that they have outside Spider-Man. Last year was a pretty good year for them since Brightburn and Once Upon In Hollywood, and of course Jumanji performed well, and thanks to Disney/Marvel’s help they managed to get a movie that to the billion dollar finish line with Far From Home but doesn’t escape the fact they don’t have much going for them in terms of major franchises at the moment.

Compare that to Disney which has had an embarrassment of riches when it comes to big IP that consistently delivers even outside the MCU. They have Star Wars & Pixar which you can make dozens of movies out of and literally made them billions of dollars, and even their live-action remakes like Lion King and Aladdin have been incredibly successful and also joined the billion dollar club.

Disney doesn't have as much IP as WB, they just have the luck of nostalgia and well known few IP rn. Apart from Star wars, Pixar and marvel, what other IP do they have save Avatar(acquired)?

dragonflyy:

he obviously has no social life. wasting data & spending hours unending talking trash about something he doesn't like. He's the kind of autistic fuckery that makes people see comic book fans as losers and laugh at them.

dragonking2:


If they didn't buy those studios, maybe Disney would have been on sale by now. Lol

Bob Iger did a good job in saving that studio through these purchases, unfortunately, he will be leaving next year

pu7pl3:



TheKingishere please can you help me with that Disney Q3 and please also do help me elaborate side by side with Sony.....these billions are making some people say things that don't make sense

Blackspider:
Wait bro, tell me you are joking? I thought it was Kathleen Kennedy that's leaving? In as much as I don't like Disney business ways, I do love iger. I hope they don't drop like WB did after Alan horn left.

dragonking2:


Disney uses these so-called billions to deceive people.

TROS will make a billion and people will think, yeah, Disney dey chop money.

Not knowing that Disney will make little to no profit from that movie.

Same with a lot of their so-called billion dollars film.

Imaging blaming Dark phoenix for causing losses when you have been bragging about Huge billions in Endgame, Captain Marvel, Toystory 4, Lion King, Aladin etc? Where did the huge money go?

Until people wake up, Disney will continue with the deceit.
