Nov 21 (Reuters) - Bob Iger must show Wall Street a new side to his character as he returns to lead Walt Disney Co (DIS.N) by cutting costs and restoring profits in just two years after splurging cash on acquisitions and a streaming business last time round. The entertainment giant shocked investors late on Sunday evening announcing the ouster of Chief Executive Bob Chapek and appointing Iger, 71, to a two-year contract to return the company to growth. read moreThe move evoked other return engagements such as Steve Jobs' return to Apple and Howard Schultz's return to Starbucks in times of crisis. The most immediate target of that could be Disney+, the streaming service that Iger helped launch in 2019. Some brokerages have also raised concern on whether the two-year period Iger has agreed to return for would be enough to transform the business and find a successor.
