Disney Buys Lucasfilm for $4 Billion

Lucas may not be involved in future Star Wars movies. Or he might be involved in lots of Disney movies.

Depending on how much of the deal is stock, this probably makes Lucas the second biggest Disney shareholder behind the Jobs estate.

ETA: Apparently half stock so this will give him about 2.2-2.5% of Disney. I believe Jobs was around 6% when he died.

Speaking of Jobs, I wonder if Lucas is having health problems as well. Selling his baby does strike me as a bit odd.

Also, let's not forget Lucasfilm's is a lot more than just Star Wars. I can't wait for the Willow and Howard the Duck sequel's
