Disney Wooing Pixar Again
The Walt Disney Co. “definitely” wants to renew its relationship with Pixar Animation Studios, Disney Studios chief Dick Cook has told the London Times. “This has been probably the most successful relationship in the history of Hollywood,” Cook told the newspaper. “It’s definitely our desire to further the relationship with Pixar for years to come, and develop it even more, and we’re hopeful they feel the same way.” It has been more than a year since Pixar Chairman Steve Jobs angrily broke off contract-renewal talks with CEO Michael Eisner. Although he has reportedly met with the heads of other studios, he reportedly has been taking a wait-and-see approach to determine whether the company’s incoming CEO, Robert Iger, will be less intractable to his terms.
