Disney CEO Bob Iger said he is laser-focused on finding his replacement by the time he steps down in 2026 — after his previous CEO pick blew up.

“It was not my intention to be pulled back in,” Iger said. “I owed it to the company that meant so much to me and had been so good to me to answer the call.”
