Disney has shaken up the leadership of its live-action film studio as boss Bob Iger looks to turn around the entertainment giant’s fortunes.
The move will see motion picture production president Sean Bailey stepping down after a decade and a half in the role.
It follows recent disappointing box office performances, including Haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise.

Disney said Mr Bailey will stay at the company as a producer on the upcoming science fiction movie Tron: Ares and other projects.
During his tenure, Mr Bailey oversaw live-action adaptations of Alice in Wonderland, Maleficent and The Jungle Book.
His blockbuster movies also included The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin.
Together his productions brought in an estimated $7bn (£5.5bn) in global box office takings for the media giant.
But last year, he was also responsible for The Little Mermaid which failed to achieve the success of others.
