Ryan Murphy seems to be coming back to his old haven, Disney Entertainment as reports confirm that he has reunited with Dana Walden under a new overall deal with Disney, after footing Netflix. To everyone’s surprise (or not), Ryan is back with Disney after several negotiations. He had left Disney for Netflix after he grabbed a rich deal with the streamer that was valued at the time between $250 million-$300 million.

This move comes five years after Ryan Murphy left 20th Century Fox TV for Netflix. That deal came right before Disney acquired 20th Century Fox and Walden, who at the time was Fox Television Group chairman-CEO. Walden is now co-chairman of Disney Entertainment.

Neither Ryan nor Disney corroborated this news and how this deal materialised. This move comes at a time when the entire Hollywood fraternity is facing the heat because of the ongoing strike bywriters.
