Earlier this year, CEO Bob Iger announced 7,000 job cuts would be coming to Disney as part of the company’s goal to reduce spending by $5.5 billion.
An initial wave of layoffs were announced this week, including Mark Levenstein, SVP Production for Hulu; Elizabeth Newman, VP of Development at 20th Television; and Jayne Bieber, SVP Production Management & Operations for Freeform. And now, a longtime Disney publicist and spokesperson has shared that he is among them.
