“Disney has named its parks chief Josh D’Amaro to succeed Bob Iger as the entertainment giant’s top executive. D’Amaro is the Disney Experiences Chairman, spearheading efforts for the company’s theme parks, cruises and resorts. He steps into the position at a time when Disney is flush with box-office hits like ‘Zootopia 2’ and ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ and its streaming business is strong. But the company is also dealing with a decline in foreign visitors to its domestic theme parks, with tourism to the U.S. falling during an aggressive immigration crack down by the Trump administration, as well as clashes with almost all of country’s trading partners. The decision on the next chief executive at Disney comes almost four years after the company’s choice to replace Iger went badly, forcing Iger back into the job.” (02/03/26)
