On Tuesday, Business Insider posted the details from Iger when he was on CNBC's "Closing Bell." Even though he didn't have too much to say about it, he did reveal the status of how things are going and how everyone took a break ever since a recent incident took place.

"I can only tell you that production is underway," Iger said. "We had a very brief hiatus... which is due in part to the fact that Harrison Ford broke his ankle."
