Amazon Acquires Creative Rights To James Bond
6.9
Amazon has acquired the creative rights to James Bond after Eon Productions' principals announced on Thursday they would sell the long-running franchise. Amazon already holds distribution rights following its MGM acquisition in 2021, and the move gives the company control over future Bond productions and adaptations.
