Part 2/9:
Within a brief span of just 24 hours, Disney announced the sudden departure of two key figures, signaling possible internal turmoil. Most notably, Shawn Bailey, the President of Walt Disney Motion Picture Studios, stepped down unexpectedly after 15 years with the company. Bailey's tenure was marked by significant successes, including overseeing major live-action remakes such as "The Lion King" and "Beauty and the Beast," which collectively generated billions for Disney. However, despite their financial triumphs, recent live-action adaptations have failed to meet expectations, with titles like "The Little Mermaid" performing poorly and resulting in substantial financial losses.
