As per reports, Walt Disney (DIS) Co-Chief Executive Officer Bob Chapek raised concern over delay in the production of some of its titles, caused by the resurgence of the Delta variant of the coronavirus. Shares of the company dropped after the statement, which was already hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic as theme parks and movie theaters remained shut.
COVID-driven production delays were seen globally, which in turn were affecting the supply of new content, but the issues were short-term, Chapek added. Launched in November 2019, Disney+ has witnessed consumer growth but the competition is intensifying with new entrants including Apple and Netflix joining and investing in producing more programs.
