The days are quieter," Iger told "Good Morning America" co-anchor Robin Roberts in an interview that aired Wednesday. "Life is in a way smaller in many respects, and I like that. "Iger spent nearly two decades as CEO, a tenure which included welcoming Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm and 21st Century Fox to the Disney family, as well as launching the company's Disney+ streaming service. When asked by Roberts what he considers his greatest accomplishment at Disney, Iger expressed pride in having maintained the legacy of the 100-year-old company.
