Disney nears choosing Josh D’Amaro, Parks chief, as Bob Iger’s successor.

The Walt Disney Company is nearing a decision on its next CEO, with board members largely favoring Josh D’Amaro, head of Disney Experiences, as Bob Iger’s successor. D’Amaro, who has led Disney Parks since 2020, has guided the division’s post-pandemic recovery, introduced major new attractions, and oversees a $60 billion global investment. As the company’s most profitable segment, Disney Parks has bolstered D’Amaro’s candidacy, though no official announcement has been made. The board has not yet finalized its choice and will disclose the decision when ready.
