He said it was an “optimal time” to transition after 15 years at the helm; Bob Chapek will succeed him.

What's the lead?
I hate bob iger he/it ruined disney with frozen and it's responsible for it's company owning abc news and their constant broadcast of President Trump and covid19. I think bob iger and the entire board of directors should be put in small dog kennels permanently at Guantanamo bay since they are obviously anti American and corruptand evil. The whole entire corporation and all it's subsidiary companies should be liquidated.
Can I be next?
Last May, Disney threatened to quit doing business in the state of Georgia after the state passed legislation that would ban abortions once a heartbeat can be detected.
Walt Disney Co. Chief Executive Bob Iger said in an interview at the time that it would be “very difficult†to continue doing business in Georgia if the law was allowed to take effect. He added that he didn’t “see how it’s practical for us to continue to shoot there.â€ÂÂ
Sooo amazing thanks for everything Bob. From all of us at ABC News proud to be a parent company of the Walt Disney Co. #TheWaltDisneyComapny #ThankYouBob #ABCNews
GOOD!
Disney is saved!
😀
You can expect a fair and impartial news story about Disney when they own the news company! Nothing like a monopoly ey
I wish could put my fist on he's smug face.
Maybe BOB CHAPBAK wants SPIDER MAN to stay in the MCU because he is making a SPIDER MAN RIDE for CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE
The force will be with you but but no ones ever really gone lmfao
Disney: I USED BOB TO DESTROY BOB
BOB IGER IS NO LEADER AND THIS DEMONSTRATES, DUDE IS A FRAUD.
THOSE STAR WARS TRILOGY SEQUELS ARE TOXIC SOY TRASH AND IT'S ALL ON HIM AND KATHLEEN KENNEDY.
GO ON TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN..WOO HOO HOO
Disney movies definitely suck now
I am really not sure what the Disney company will do after Iger stepping down. Maybe they can expand more of their theme parks. Maybe they can produce more original content. Maybe they can buy less companies as they are too big.
He is so smart, stepping down amid corona virus. Disneyland parks will suffer greatly from this virus hence the revenue and profit, and he will be blamed for it. He's not letting this virus to tarnish his lavish successful career and reputation, no way Jose'
So a living thumb is going to be the CEO of disney this is just precious
I completely understand that, but very proud of Bob Iger, I don’t know when there’s any new opportunities for him or just retired next year like Ed Catmull did.
I respect his decision, but all I ever say is thank you for everything, Bob. I’ll miss you but Disney will keep moving forward.
Thor Ragnarok was better then Black Panther.
Surprised by all the negativity in the comments. I know this will probably surprise you, but at the company he's actually really well respected and liked. He is humble, respectful, visionary, goes the extra mile for company culture he established and cares for diversity.
According to his book, he envies creatives as he is not one. So why is he "focusing" on an aspect of Disney for which he has no talent?
Thank you for the memories Bob!
Disney had the chance to work with Harvey Weinstein but the business deal never was approved. Plus Bob Iger was set to leave the CEO position for awhile ago but wanted to finish Disney Plus and the China deal first.
Stepping down NOT leaving the company or Being fired or retiring.
Why is this news? Especially because he will still be working at the company. They just made the Guy who was the head of the Amusement park the ceo.
He should apologize “ I was fired for giving Meghan a job “ from Harry’s pimping and caught on tape for the whole world to see.Meghan should give up the job also if she has any dignity left…Yes it is called Corruption….
Disney is the pedos playground. And the playground is full of them.
Queen of England send her regards to Bob iger
Okay can everyone please stop with the allegations jokes. There’s no proof that he did any kind of harassment against women or children
Disney CEO gets paid $100m? Gonna be a fun fact for future historians.
“Oh gawd there was a pile of shoes!â€ÂÂ
Bye Bob, Hi Bob.
Stepping down or forced out??? There's more to this story that's being revealed in your news clip. Hopefully the truth will be told very soon.
Oh!no! HE leads disney success on top amongst high and hard business competition .we get a perfect marvel world because of really HE.
45 years with the company? That’s incredible
About time
Bob Iger used to run ABC News.
Thanos snapped Bob vs. Bob Thanos vs Iron man 🤯🤣
Just watch… Iger is going to run for President 🙄

Can’t fool the internet we have our theories
They really highlighted black panther as a "revolutionary blockbuster" what a fucking joke lmfao, pander more why don't you ABC. Garbage media company
Too late, the House of the Mouse owns everything now.
