Mundo Fox started broadcasting on October 23, 2015, with an all-Lusophone line-up. Among the content at launching time was the Portuguese telenovela Doce Tentação, the reality show Lucky Ladies and programming made specifically for the Angolan market, the first such format being A Sentada, a cooking show.[2]

The launch of the channel was celebrated with a public presentation of its contents at the Presidente hotel in Luanda. The channel's DStv slot at launch was 500.[3]

For the 2017-2018 television season, the channel premiered a new season of Tropa d'Os Tuneza, the channel's stand-up show, in a VIP format, with Angolan celebrities.[4]

On November 27, 2023, Disney has announced that Fox channels (including Mundo Fox, Fox, Fox Crime, Fox Life, Fox Comedy and Fox Movies) would rebrand to "Star" on 7 February 2024.[5][6][7][8][9]
