In a sudden move, Sean Bailey, who led Walt Disney’s live-action movie business to record-breaking success, is stepping down from his role as President of Motion Picture Studios. David Greenbaum, co-president of Searchlight, will take over as President of Disney Live Action and 20th Century Studios. This shake-up in leadership marks the end of an era for Disney’s film division. Bailey, who joined the studio as the producer of ‘Tron Legacy’, will stay on to produce the upcoming ‘Tron: Ares’ before pursuing new ventures. While there were rumors of Bailey potentially heading to Netflix, he is set to remain at Disney as a producer. His departure signals a shift in direction for the studio, as Greenbaum steps into his new role. Fans can expect new and exciting projects under Greenbaum’s leadership, as Disney continues to dominate the box office with its live-action adaptations and original films.
