It's not clear yet what Disney will do with the Fox label/brand. Maybe they will assign that to be their label for more adult-oriented releases. Keep Star Wars under Disney along with WDAS animation and the live-action versions of their animated classics. Pixar has its own brand. Fox becomes sort of a specialty label on steroids.

Or not. Who knows?

I doubt Fox Searchlight stays in anything like its current form. Disney doesn't really want to be a big player in the speciality film business. Maybe they'll sell Searchlight. It's a pretty good operation.

However, the release of an upconverted/restored original trilogy is a far more important open question.
