Disney has settled its differences with YouTube over the departure of Justin Connolly, a high-level exec who now oversees YouTube’s media and sports operations.
Connolly left Disney in May after 25 years at the company. Disney immediately sued YouTube for poaching him, and sued Connolly for breaching his contract. According to the suit, Connolly was just five months into a new three-year contract as president of platform distribution.
Disney’s lawyers filed a notice of settlement on Tuesday, which did not reveal any details of the resolution.
Connolly was paid $6 million in 2024, making him one of Disney’s highest paid executives.
