Disney acquired Marvel Entertainment back in 2009. And very recently, it took ownership of LucasArts.

Both companies have tons of unique characters at its disposal. When you think about it, incorporating Marvel and/or LucasArts IP into the new Disney Infinity game could lead to some interesting results.

Avalanche Software CEO John Blackburn is certainly on board with the idea. However, he’s quick to caution that a decision hasn’t been made.

“As a developer, I so want that. When Disney bought Lucasfilm, I was like, ‘Holy crap! This is awesome!’ But at this point in time, there’s been some discussions about that, there’s just been no decisions made.”

Legendary Disney character Mickey Mouse also has a similar undecided fate. But when Blackburn was asked about including icons such as Mickey, Donald Duck, and Goofy, he said “We’re all things Disney.”
