That's because the chief diversity officer and senior vice president of Disney, Latondra Newton, is leaving her role after more than six years, Deadline reported citing an internal memo.

Coleman wrote that Newton "decided to leave The Walt Disney Company to pursue other endeavors." Newton plans to join the corporate board of another company and focus on the creative company she owns. It wasn't clear if she would hire Alissa Heinerscheid, best known for single handedly destroying Bud Light and Tranheuser Busch with her Dylan Mulvaney influencer campaign.

Newton had, since 2017, led Disney's diversity and inclusion initiatives, coordinating with various teams to produce entertainment "that reflects a global audience and sustains a welcoming and inclusive workplace for everyone," as per a profile on the company's website.

Her time at Disney included co-signing with Bob Iger and Bob Chapek the May 2020 memo to Disney staff in the wake of the George Floyd killing, titled "Resolve in the Time of Unrest." In it, the trio pledged "to use our compassion, our creative ideas and our collective sense of humanity to ensure we are fostering a culture that acknowledges our people's feelings and their pain. We also realize that now more than ever is the time for us all to further strengthen our commitment to diversity and inclusion everywhere."

Before Disney, Newton was Group Vice President, Social Innovation and Chief Diversity Officer. Toyota Motor North America, Inc. and Chief Program Officer, Toyota Mobility Foundation, Toyota Motor Corporation. She began her career at Toyota in 1991.
