Disney's Pixar lays off execs and veterans in 75 job cuts.
TL;DR
Walt Disney's Pixar Animation Studios has cut 75 positions, including those of two executives behind "Lightyear," which was a box office disappointment. The cuts are part of Walt Disney CEO Bob Iger's plan to eliminate 7,000 jobs and cut $5.5 billion in costs. Angus MacLane, the director of "Lightyear," and Galyn Susman, the producer, were among those laid off. The last time Pixar cut jobs was in 2013, after the studio postponed the release of "The Good Dinosaur."
