Disney to Pay At Least $115 Million to Paramount for 'Iron Man 3' and 'The Avengers'




Many people have been wondering: "After The Avengers, what can Marvel do?". Well, it's the obvious choice: Iron Man 3. Today, Disney announced that the next movie in the Iron Man series is set to be released on May 3, 2013. The date makes sense since the last two Iron Man's have both been released in the first week of May, and faired very well.


The announcement of Iron Man 3's May 3, 2013 release date came as Disney paid Paramount $115 million to take over the rights to distribute Iron Man 3 and The Avengers in 2012. Paramount will keep the rights to next year's Captain America: The First Avenger and 2011's Thor, as well as the previously released Iron Man and Iron Man 2.


After Iron Man 3 is released, it and any other new Marvel movie films will be distributed by Disney.
