following Disney’s acquisition of Rupert Murdoch’s 21st Century Fox.
Disney CEO Bob Iger
has announced that the company has reached a deal with Fox, buying select
assets of the latter for $52.4 billion in stock, reports aceshowbiz.com.
He said: “We’re also
looking forward to expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe to include X-Men, Fantastic Four and Deadpool.”

huge move as Marvel can finally reclaim many of the characters it lost in the
1990s after it licensed them out to prevent bankruptcy.

from the X-Men and Fantastic Fouruniverses
will now join the MCU, which has already teamed The Avengers with Guardians of the Galaxy, Doctor
Strange and Spider-Man.

future of Deadpool, the
R-rated Marvel franchise at Fox.

has been and will be Marvel branded. But we think there might be an opportunity
for a Marvel-R brand for something like . As long as we let the audiences know
what’s coming, we think we can manage that fine,” said Iger.

announced a plan to launch two streaming services by 2019.
