We look at why Disney’s theme parks, cruise ships, and consumer products have become its biggest profit engine, and how D’Amaro’s background in the Experiences unit fits the company’s shift away from being driven mainly by TV networks. I also explain what happened in the previous succession (including the corporate coup that brought Iger back), why Dana Walden didn’t get CEO but was given a newly elevated role overseeing movies and streaming, and what challenges remain—like making streaming more robust and creating new hit franchises—while we practice key B2/C1 vocabulary from the article.
