James Bond's long-serving producers give control to Amazon

In a significant shift for the James Bond franchise, long-time producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli have transferred creative control to Amazon MGM Studios. This transition marks the end of the Broccoli family's stewardship, which began with Albert R. Broccoli in the 1960s.

Wilson and Broccoli, who have been integral to the franchise for decades, will now focus on other endeavors. Wilson plans to dedicate more time to art and charity work, while Broccoli intends to pursue various projects. Despite stepping back, they will remain co-owners of the James Bond intellectual property rights, allowing Amazon MGM Studios to co-own the franchise.

This development opens the door for Amazon to expand the Bond universe, potentially introducing new films and television spin-offs on Amazon Prime. The next James Bond film, "Bond 26," is currently in pre-production, though an official release date has not been announced. Discussions are ongoing regarding the casting of the next actor to portray the iconic 007 role, with Harris Dickinson and Stuart Martin among the potential candidates.
