Former Disney CEO Bob Chapek is set to release his memoir on September 29th, 2026.

In it, he reveals high-stakes maneuverings that took place behind the scenes during his time in office.
The book will also cover Chapek's early years and his journey to becoming CEO, including his roles as Marketing Director for Home Entertainment and President of Disney Consumer Products and Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products.
