This just in: Bob Iger picks up his own pizza. As might be predicted, there was not much in the way of breaking news in tonight’s conversation between Disney chairman and CEO Bob Iger and interview…
And Iger was noncommittal about the future of short-form content. “Remember, Mickey Mouse is more short form than long form, he’s mostly been in shorts. Shorts, and shorts,” he added, referring to the Mouse’s standard attire. But, seriously, “I think it’s a very different form of storytelling,” Iger said. “Iger added that while it is harder to gain traction with story and character in short-form content, he said he expects the form to “have impact” in the future.
At the beginning of the discussion, Iger joked that he and his longtime friend Grazer were an unlikely pair: “I’m management and he’s creative.” Later, he described himself as a “generally reserved person, I don’t think I over-emote.” He described that reserved quality as perhaps a liability when news is good, but an asset in failure because being negative does nothing to help inspire a creative team to further success.
Despite his self-description, Iger seemed relaxed and often cracked wise in response to questions from Grazer and the audience. Someone’s cell phone rang as Iger was talking about his relationship with the late Steve Jobs: “I hope that’s an iPhone,” Iger said. When asked about his retirement plans after 45 years with one company, Iger said: “I’m going to Disneyland!”
And, when an audience member shouted out “2020,” as encouragement for Iger to re-think his decision not to run for president, Iger replied: That’s a news show on ABC.”
