FRANKFURT - German luxury carmaker BMW on Thursday named 55-year-old Oliver Zipse as its new chief executive, continuing a tradition of promoting a manufacturing expert to the top job. “The Supervisory Board of BMW AG appointed at today’s meeting Oliver Zipse as the new Chairman of the Board of Management with effect from 16 August 2019,” the company said in a statement on Thursday.
BMW installed a new boss after 53-year-old Harald Krueger said he would not be available for a second term as CEO, pre-empting a discussion about whether was eligible for a contract renewal.

John Oliver Annoyed After Discovering He The Only Non-CGI Character In ‘Lion King’ RemakeNEW YORK—Expressing irritation at the lack of communication from Disney regarding the major casting discrepancy in the newly-released film, John Oliver expressed annoyance Thursday after discovering that he was the only non-CGI character in the Lion King remake. “What in the hell? Everyone else provides a voice for a painstakingly and realistically modeled animal,” said the actor and Last Week Tonight host, watching in horror as his character, Zazu the hornbill, appeared onscreen with just a plastic beak to lecture a flawlessly rendered CGI lion voiced by Donald Glover. “They continuously misled me as to the nature of my role and they didn’t even bother to give me feathers and I’m wearing my normal clothes. At one point, my beak fell off and they claimed it would be fixed in post, but they even kept that part in. You can clearly hear me saying ‘Oh, no, my beak.’ This is humiliating. I can’t believe this was part of [director Jon] Favreau’s vision.” Oliver admitted that he was most embarrassed by the scene in which he was shown hesitantly and clumsily clambering up a tree branch to admonish the Chiwetel Ejiofor-voiced Scar.
