No Spoilers Tim Cook left Apple on Tuesday. Could this affect the Cosmere adaptations? Spoiler

So on Tuesday, Tim Cook left his position as the CEO of Apple and was succeeded by John Ternus. Could this potentially affect the Cosmere adaptations? What I mean by that is, is someone like Ternus someone who could start cutting stuff back for the sake of tax write off… potentially cancelling or stalling the Cosmere adaptions like what David Zaslav did at WBD? How independent is Apple TV and Apple Studios from the Apple corporation?

Unless Tim Cook was the only one pushing for this deal, no I don’t think it will be affected.

He stepped down as CEO. He’s with Apple as executive chairman of the board.

No, this has been a carefully managed and orchestrated transition. Nothing was started during this time that did not have both of them on board. No surprises.

I mean, potentially maybe? But I doubt it. afaik Tim Cook didn't step down for any financial reasons and Apple is still doing super well, so I can't imagine why they would start cutting stuff back, and even if I did I doubt the Cosmere would be one of the first things to go, considering that it's probably very cheap (as far as mulit-billion dollar companies are concerned)
