excel1 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) This feels like "Conan taking over Leno" all over again. What on Earth. They just renewed Chapek's contract too. Assuming Chapek stepped down, and quite clearly they didn't have anyone ready to take over, so Iger is back? Did something terrible happen to Chapek's personal life? This is way out of left field.

Morieris Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 He was making them money, but at the cost of the brand. Oh BOY I can't wait for WDWNT + The Dis to cover this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I'm only surprised Iger wanted this role back. Does make a lot of sense that Disney would want Iger back though 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iger had a few candidates suited to takeover ala Kevin Mayer and Tom Staggs once upon a time. Where are they at? Peter Rice another name. Worth nothing - @excel1 would be a great candidate too and would open to discussing the job. Edited November 21, 2022 by excel1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He comes off too cold and calculating compared to family friendly warm Bob. Even Eisner used to the do the Disney movie intros, so kids liked him! Chapek seems like a highly effective executive who is better at getting results than being the face of something, which is required of these types of things. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like he was being second guessed by the previous CEO. Also felt like the board never liked Chapek much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
