The Star Wars franchise has continued to grow since Disney purchased Lucasfilm, so here is a complete timeline of when Disney bought Star Wars.

Disney has expanded the Star Wars franchise in ways that seemed impossible before George Lucas sold the saga he created. Star Wars has had a constant stream of new movies and TV shows which seems to have no end in sight, and the new Disney canon has grown into a massive catalog of books, comics, and video games that continue to expand the franchise in every way imaginable.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Understanding when and how Disney bought Star Wars may shed light on the future direction of the franchise. Disney had specific goals in mind when they became intent on purchasing Star Wars, and Lucas had high hopes for the enduring legacy of his creation after he had retired. While the franchise has evolved in ways neither party could imagine, the events that led to Disney buying Star Wars shaped the fate of the saga from then on.

Timeline Of Disney's Lucasfilm Purchase May 2011 - Bob Iger Approaches Lucas During The Reopening Of Star Tours Disney CEO Bob Iger first approached Lucas when the Star Tours ride reopened at Disney World and Disneyland after a year-long refurbishment.

The deal was officially announced on October 30, 2012, with Lucas signing the company to Disney in a press release. It was confirmed that Kathleen Kennedy, a longtime collaborator of Lucas', would take over as president of Lucasfilm and oversee the development of new Star Wars movies.
