James Bond vs Bezos – Will Amazon ruin 007?
Description
‘No Prime To Die’? Amazon takes over creative control of James Bond from the Broccoli family who turned the suave spy into a movie icon. What happens now? Will Amazon simply rinse the I.P. with ever-cheesier spin-offs like Disney did with Star Wars? Is 007 still relevant in a world where real-life Bond villains run tech companies and countries? Can you still make a hero out of a heavy-drinking, womanising figure from Britain’s imperial past? Film journalist Helen O’Hara, editor-at-large of Empire magazine and host of the Empire Film podcast joins Andrew Harrison to look at Bond’s future.
