Disney CEO Bob Iger said he was not anticipating being asked back to lead the entertainment giant after he retired in 2021. However, he says the changes made by his successor (and now predecessor) “created a huge divide” that needed to be corrected.
In an interview with CNBC’s David Faber, Iger said he was called by Susan Arnold, chairwoman of The Walt Disney Company, on Nov. 18 about returning. The announcement was made public two days later.
