In a move that shocked Hollywood, Bob Iger, one of the most notable CEOs in the history of the Walt Disney company, is returning to run the media empire.
Bob Chapek, who replaced Iger in 2020 as CEO, is stepping down immediately.
"We thank Bob Chapek for his service to Disney over his long career, including navigating the company through the unprecedented challenges of the pandemic," Susan Arnold, Chairman of the Board for Disney, said in a statement on Sunday night. "The Board has concluded that as Disney embarks on an increasingly complex period of industry transformation, Bob Iger is uniquely situated to lead the Company through this pivotal period."
Disney said Sunday that Iger has agreed to serve as CEO for two years with "a mandate from the Board to set the strategic direction for renewed growth and to work closely with the Board in developing a successor to lead the Company at the completion of his term."

How so? If he tried it certainly wasn’t noticeable. Disney was still in the throes of a downward spiral towards uberwokeness.
wokness in the creative divisions is entrenched, hard, thanks to Iger. Chapek was working on pushing that out with Star Wars/Marvel series being complete failures over the last 2 years and was probably about to annount both of them being fired but the board just intervened.
Iger hand picked Feige and kathleen Kennedy.
Now. they’re not going anywhere.
Bob Iger is the one that put in place all the pedophiles and wokeness at Disney!
Bob Chapek.....how much is the dufus getting to just go away. I have read nothing on this. All these top piggies get golden parachutes....
My guess is $50 million
From last year...

Scroll down to the bit about Disney.
The author was prescient.
FU Disney
Theme park is dead. I’ve said it before: it’ll eventually be converted into condos.
Like MJ’s Never Land.
Pedo palace.
Ask the Boy Scouts
Chapek lost MILLIONS of investor’s money!! Bye-Bye Woke Loser!
Smells like a desperation move to me in response to some forthcoming crisis, considering that Disney just renewed Chapek’s contract for another three years.
I learned form a gay employee at the time, that Disneyworld has been a gay haven for at least the last 25 years. Iger won’t change that. Disney is corrupt beyond repair.
The kiddie pornsters out there! THOSE were the perverts behind keeping the kids drawn into their WOKE debauchery!
Then the parents, home because of COVID lockdowns, saw the CRAP Disney was putting on their TV and in their kids’ minds FINALLY saw the light and said, NO MORE!
I know people who were saving money up to and into the start of the COVID crap, to go to Disney land or world...after watching Disney+ with their kids for about three days, they said they would never spend another penny on them! They canceled Disney+, and decided a family vacation to a national park was more likely what they will be doing!
People were simply NOT PAYING ATTENTION! COVID gave them the opportunity (those who wanted to see) actually to notice the problems we are facing.

I am raising my payout bet to 100 million to get rid of Chapek doodle man. He has an unfortunate look. Like a circus clown
Everyone knows what killed Disney

The Iger Sanction?
replacing one degenerate cog with another won’t change the direction or purpose of the degenerate machine.
Same thing came out of that home teaching (NOT home schooling) BS that was all the rage. Parents started to see exactly what they were subjecting their children to. Whether they do anything about it remains to be seen.
Disney thought they were fighting Desantis and the Republicans.
Who Disney attacked is every parent in the state, country and world with a young child as they wanted to teach sexual content to 5 year olds.
