Makes sense, every piece of news about Chapek since he took over was that he fucked something up.

NOW, If #BobIger will just hit the delete key on everything #BobChapek did, maybe we can have the old Disney back.

Well when you talk down on one of the foundations the company was built on (animation), is it surprising this happened?

Now I just hope the same happens for Zaslav

Massive news in the entertainment space and, with ESPN, in the sports world.

Fun to see the reactions from industry luminaries in the old Twitter timeline. (I also enjoyed Bob Iger's autobiography)

【速報】長年ディズニーのCEOを務め最近引退したボブ・アイガーがディズニーCEOとして電撃復帰、そして現CEOのチャペクは退社。日曜夜に衝撃のニュース。 #ディズニー

@DILIPtheCHERIAN

Return-home CEOs, must embed some cautionary tales from publicly held companies who falter. Anyone analysed this trajectory. Or is it more about a handful of individuals? @SandipGhose @sruthijith @ShereenBhan @szarabi @AabhaBakaya?

Bob Iger saw Chapek moving like

In a future story: "Iger, freshly armed with inside details of Warner Bros. Discovery's plans and tactics moving forward, will be well positioned to lead Disney's dual streaming and theatrical strategy against their competitors." 😅😲

Regardless of his flaws, Robert Iger is a way better CEO than Old Paychek. This is the best announcement for the Disney 100 year anniversary. Hopefully this spells good news for Disney animation in theaters.
