And among those who saw? Former Disney CEO Bob Iger, who responded to Bass with “The world will know your name!” Yep. Three exclamation marks, friends.
The world will know your name!

Even writer / director James Gunn received praise, with Zach Braff from Scrubs instructing Gunn to hire Bass.
Hire this man, Gunn!

Iger, who has served as CEO of The Walt Disney Company since 2005 and oversaw some of the company’s largest acquisitions such as Marvel and Lucasfilm, resigned from that position last February, before Disney parks closed due to the pandemic. .
About a month later, Disney announced that the company’s top executives will take pay cuts during the COVID-19 crisis, with CEO Iger giving up his salary entirely.
