What would a Disney film be without a villain?
The villain is often the most important character. Afflicted with flaws like greed, vanity and a thirst for power, the villain doesn't play by the rules, but does offer a different perspective.The villain in the live action boardroom battle at Disney has been Nelson Peltz .Mr Peltz is an activist investor and a founder of investment firm Trian Fund Management which currently has $8.5 billion in assets under management.
He is also known for an investment of a different kind, paying for the celebrity wedding of the year in 2022. Mr Peltz's daughter, Nicola, married Brooklyn Beckham, son of David and Victoria Beckham, at the Peltz family's mansion in Palm Beach, Florida. At its shareholder meeting on Wednesday, Disney said its board nominees had been elected by a"substantial margin". It is believed that a third of votes cast supported Mr Peltz for a seat.
A streak of films have disappointed at the box, so were calls for a review of studio operations controversial or constructive? "Regardless of outcome of today's vote, Trian will be watching the company's performance," Mr Peltz added. It has been criticised for including LGBTQ+ characters and elements in stories — like a same-sex kiss in Lightyear and a nonbinary character in Elemental. There were even those who took issue with a black Ariel in Little Mermaid.
