Disney's CEO Showdown Heats Up as Iger's Exit Nears and Oscars Disappoint
Disney BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Disney's whirlwind week kicked off with Oscar nominations that left the Mouse feeling snubbed, as reported by MickeyBlog and the Walt Disney Company. Zootopia 2 and Pixar's Elio snagged Best Animated Feature nods, while Avatar: Fire and Ash grabbed just two technical categories, a far cry from its predecessor's haul and signaling Hollywood's cooling on blue Na'vi after a mere 1.4 billion box office take. Meanwhile, Bob Iger's 2025 payday hit 45.8 million dollars amid flat stock prices hovering near 111 bucks, per financial filings highlighted by Inside the Magic and MickeyBlog, fueling critics as his exit looms by December 2026 with the board eyeing a successor reveal around the March 18 shareholder meeting.
That high-stakes virtual showdown, announced by WDWMagic, now includes three hot-button proposals Disney first tried to nix but reversed on, per MickeyBlog: audits on disability inclusion, climate commitments, and religious discrimination claims. AllEars.net buzzed with Disney World scoops, like the Garden View Tea Room reopening March 19 at Grand Floridian with Alice in Wonderland flair and new scones, Gideons Bakehouse expanding to Six Ravens at Disney Springs by mid-2026 with local-flavor sandwiches partnering The Polite Pig, and the Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic set for November 20-21. Discounts dropped too, slashing 30 percent off rooms and tossing free days into packages.
On the housing front, Inside the Magic revealed Floridas water management district greenlit Disneys long-stalled affordable project near Flamingo Crossings after 36 months of drama, paving for 1400 mixed-income units mostly for 49k to 90k earners, with first moves possibly in 2027. Safety tweaks hit Indiana Jones stunt show post-Cast Member boulder block injury, and Cool Kids Summer returns with a Toy Story Jessies Roundup at Diamond Horseshoe. No big Iger sightings or social flares, but the CEO hunt gained steam, pitting ops whiz Josh DAmaro against creative Dana Walden in a fork thatll shape parks, streams, and stories for years. Whispers say March 18 could drop the name, darling.
