Disney: Acquisitions that Shaped the Cinematic Universe

Marvel Entertainment is one of the most iconic and influential companies in the world of comics and superheroes. His presence in cinema has an intense history, with several entertainment companies disputing the distribution and production rights of his characters.

Since Disney's acquisition of Marvel in 2009, Marvel's superhero movies have gone through a consolidation movement, with the original comic book characters sharing the same universe, known as the multiverse. This movement gained even more strength with the acquisition of Fox by Disney, which is the 4th largest in the sector. This made Disney gain rights to franchises such as “X-Men” and “Fantastic Four”.

These operations not only shaped the current superhero universe, but also solidified Disney's position as a major player in the entertainment industry. This is a clear example of the transformative power of mergers and acquisitions.
