How Marvel's 'Black Panther' Was The Hero The U.S. Box Office Needed
Walt Disney and Marvel’s Black Panther has now earned $676 million in North America, just shy of the inflation-adjusted gross of The Jungle Book to become the 32nd-biggest “tickets sold” grosser of all time. Beyond all of the other lessons, results and what-have-you concerning Ryan Coogler and Joe Robert Cole’s MCU hit, it may have single-handedly saved the domestic box office from irrelevancy.

If the companies prevail — and I realize that’s a big if — that would diminish the concerns from Fox's that a deal with Comcast would be blocked by antitrust regulators. If that happens, a Comcast transaction might prove to be more tempting for Fox shareholders since the Philadelphia-based company’s bid was 16% higher on a per-share basis than Disney's.
