The CEO of Walt Disney becomes the most influential person in the entertainment industry
The Hollywood Reporter has released its annual ranking of the most influential people in the entertainment industry. It was headed by the head of the Walt Disney company Bob Iger. It is noted that to all his many achievements in this post in 2019, Iger added the successful accession of 21st Century Fox along with all the assets of the Fox studio, as well as the launch of the streaming service Disney +. In addition, the movie projects of various departments of Walt Disney occupied the entire "podium" in the competition for the title of highest grossing in the current year, despite the fact that not all potential billionaires have been released. Iger also has another personal achievement: his memoir "The Ride of a Lifetime", published in the United States, became a bestseller. In second place were Netflix streaming executives Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos. Despite a significant decrease in the company's capitalization and the number of subscribers (in the second quarter of 2019 there were less than 130 thousand people) and a huge debt ($ 10 billion), Netflix is still one of the leading players in this market. The company will have to work hard to maintain its position in 2020. Brian Roberts and Steve Burke, CEOs of NBCUniversal, took third place in the ranking. Having failed to defeat Walt DIsney in the battle for the 21st Century Fox, the company nevertheless acquired another important asset - the European giant Sky.
