Westerhouse wrote: Okay. Here. Ford Riley is the executive producer and head writer for 'The Lion Guard'. This means that he is/was the lead on the 'Lion Guard' production team. Within the team, he would have final say on the plot and other elements of the show. HOWEVER, in Disney, all episodes, movies, etc, must be approved by higher-ups at Disney. Disney also takes a much more active role in production than normal. Often, the higher-ups at Disney will overwrite the decisions of the project lead. Particularly in projects that are a part of a well-established franchise, like 'The Lion King'. What if the director does not agree with the scriptwriter's script
