Under the terms of the deal, Disney will pay $30 a share in cash and .745 Disney shares for every Marvel share, with no less than 40 percent of the deal being made in stock. Disney valued the deal at $50 a share as of the companies' share prices on Friday. Isaac Perlmutter, Marvel's chief executive, will continue to oversee his company's properties, including more than 5,000 characters that also include Iron Man and the X-Men. Marvel has had a string of successful movies based on its characters, which analysts have praised in part for the company's taking an active role in their production. This transaction combines Marvel's strong global brand and world-renowned library of characters including Iron Man, Spider-Man, X-Men, Captain America, Fantastic Four and Thor with Disney's creative skills, unparalleled global portfolio of entertainment properties, and a business structure that maximizes the value of creative properties across multiple platforms and territories, Robert A.

Re: [scifinoir2] Re: Disney to buy Marvel Entertainment for $4 billion
They used to own Lionsgate too. (software and film) They got scared and let them go. The biggest issue to me is will Disney be a silent owner or will they try to censor and stifle creativity in the hopes that companies make family friendly entertainment. Anyone remember the years when Blockbuster was making their own film edits of films?
