The Walt Disney Company’s new CEO, Josh D’Amaro, has further discussed the company’s $1.5 billion investment into Fortnite. During a recent Q&A, D’Amaro was asked about the partnership, saying people can expect extensive synergy with Disney’s other businesses, and this includes the possibility of premiering new movies within Fortnite.
“It’s not just gonna be one character. It could be a new film premiering there, it could be the place that you decide to book your next cruise vacation. You could participate in the Super Bowl in some way there,” D’Amaro said, as reported by Puck.
D’Amaro spearheaded Disney’s investment into Epic for the Fortnite project, and the incoming CEO wants to do more with gaming overall. It was recently reported that Disney was close to making even more gaming deals, but the search for a new CEO may have disrupted or delays these plans.
