The story
The channel was originally launched as Fox, a localized version of the American television network Fox Broadcasting Company.
The Spanish-language broadcast began on 14 August 1993 and the Portuguese-language feed broadcast began on 17 September 1994.
The channel took part in the worldwide premiere of The Walking Dead on November 1, 2010, and the Zombie Invasion Event promotion that led up to it. After the final episode of the first season of The Walking Dead aired, Fox released the uncensored version of the first episode.
In December 2010, the channel started using the RTC ratings (Radio, Televisión y Cinematografía) in Mexico.
In November 2012, Fox including its sister channels were removed in various cable providers such as Cablevision Monterrey, and Cablemás due to contract issues. The problem with Cablevision was fixed one day later.
In November 2018, the channel was rebranded as Fox Channel. In March 2019, it became a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company after it acquired 21st Century Fox.
On November 27, 2020, Disney announced that they would be renaming the Fox branded channels in Latin America to Star on 22 February 2021 to avoid confusion with Fox Corporation.
On December 2, 2024, The Walt Disney Company announced that Star Channel would end in Brazil along with its sister channels (except for its ESPN channels) on February 28, 2025. In Hispanic America, the channel will continue to operate.
