Walt Disney Company may sever ties with the state of Georgia if the states controversial heartbeat abortion bill takes effect.

Speaking to Reuters on Wednesday, Bob Iger, the media companys chief executive, said it would be very difficult for Disney to keep filming in the state if the law, which bans abortion after six weeks, is implemented.

I rather doubt we will continue filming in Georgia, Iger said in Anaheim ahead of the opening of a new Star Wars section in Disneyland. I think many people who work for us will not want to work there, and we will have to heed their wishes in that regard.

Iger added the company, which has filmed such blockbuster films as Black Panther and Avengers: Endgame in Georgia, was watching the situation very carefully.
