Suggesting that MCU and X-Men crossover could happen sooner than later, CNBC reports Disney has been in talks to acquire much of 21st Century Fox. In a press release today, the outlet indicated 21st Century Fox is looking to sell off most of its properties to Disney in an effort to focus “tightly” on news and sports. There’s a caveat that the talks have been going on and off for weeks now, and the merger is far from a done deal. In fact, the House Of Mouse and home of News Corporation aren’t currently in any negotiations, but CNBC notes that there is a “growing belief amongst [Fox’s] senior manage that scale in media is of immediate importance and that there is not a path to gain that scale in entertainment through acquisition.” We think that goes to CNBC’s other point about the whole narrowing of focus.
