Who became CEO of Disney in February 2020?

Bob Chapek became CEO of The Walt Disney Company in February 2020.

Chapek succeeded Bob Iger, who had led Disney as chief executive since 2005. Disney announced the transition on February 25, 2020, making Chapek the company's seventh chief executive. Iger did not disappear from Disney immediately: he became executive chairman and retained creative oversight during the transition, while Chapek took responsibility for day-to-day operations.

Chapek had spent 26 years at Disney before becoming CEO. He began in the Home Entertainment division and later became chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products. His tenure soon coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic, which created severe challenges for Disney's theme parks, theatrical releases, cruises, and sports operations. Chapek remained CEO until November 2022, when Disney's board removed him and reinstated Iger. Thus, Bob Iger is both Chapek's predecessor and successor, but Chapek is the answer to the February 2020 appointment question.
