If HudsonMedia acquired Pixar

The acquisition of Pixar Animation Studios by HudsonMedia Entertainment announced on February 2027 and completed on September 2027.

This acquisition resulted in Pixar breaking up with Disney for the second time after they previously got furious at their CEO, Bob Chapek for moving three Pixar movies to Disney+ instead of theatrical. This also resulted in bulking up his company's animation sibling alongside their streaming platform with the majority stake of Comcast's NBCU and Paramount as well as the move of the Pixar library.

Background
In February 2029, when HudsonMedia's founder, owner, president and CEO, Nathaniel Hudson-Monta Baptiste sent a letter, efforting to separate and acquire Pixar from Disney after in late 2022 their employees slam Bob Chapek for, instead of releasing theatrically, moving to their streaming platform Disney+, Pixar CFO Pete Docter approved it after he previously saw the Natesworld cutaway of Snoopy, Oopsy and Woodstock to see Soul, Luca and Turning Red in theatres.

In April, CNBC reported that HudsonMedia Entertainment was in talks with Pete Docter to buy Pixar after merger plans were announced recently like the WarnerMedia deal with Discovery, which later formed Warner Bros. Discovery in April 2022 and the second Viacom deal with CBS, forming ViacomCBS (now Paramount) in December 2019. Hudson also faced heavy competition with mini-major and major studios such as Lionsgate, 20th Century Fox, Paramount, Universal, and MGM, along with A24. According to Nathaniel, the company must've had a restructure after they became the new home of Natesworld, which Nate also owned and was remained on YouTube.

Failure to a Deal and Lawsuit
The Walt Disney Company is worried about HudsonMedia Entertainment's ability to acquire Pixar and could result in the studio losing billions of dollars as well as their library. This gave CEO Bob Iger an idea as he announces that the company is acquiring HudsonMedia Entertainment, which includes HudsonMedia Studios, its animation and television division, and many more, instead so they can keep Pixar as their owner and the only way to help Disney grow it's library is that he wanted to convince their founder about selling the studio. However in a shareholder meeting, Nate refuses to do so with Nate telling Iger: "I hope you'll be kicked out because I am not letting you acquire my company neither that Disney should own it". An hour later, Disney announces to cancel the plans to acquire HudsonMedia Entertainment after Robert Iger was replaced by Elizabeth Disney, niece of Walt and Roy Disney, brothers who are founders of the studio as its CEO.

In June, Pixar announced that they're leaving Disney for HudsonMedia and would regrow its animation division, HudsonAnimation. However, a lawsuit was filed against the company by a furious Disney shareholder. He says that the end of the Disney/Pixar relationship could leave no trace behind for Disney's future after the studio faltered previously due to The Incredibles and Finding Nemo and may result in bankruptcy. However, HudsonMedia won the case and the judge countersued the shareholder for perjury and was fined later that year.

Birthday of the Owner and Re-release
In August, during Nate's birthday, Pixar put together a short based on the studio's first movie, Twelve as well as the reanimation of Luxo Jr. They are also re-releasing all Pixar movies and shorts, including Soul, Luca and Turning Red. Following it, they are producing Conker! with Xbox Media Studios and Point Grey Pictures in 2030. This could be marked as the first Pixar animated movie under HudsonMedia and the first R-rated Pixar movie.
