But now that theyre out of the picture, Amazon can do whatever it wants.A TV show about Moneypenny?
A prequel about Blofelds teenage years?
More 007 game shows?
But anything is possible.
Amazon is now free to milk the franchise dry.
If so, who would you cast as your version of Bond?
Perkins immediately shot down the question by answering: No, because fuck Jeff Bezos.
…one filmmaker whose name has come up a ton in the rumor mill is Edward Berger.
We will certainly miss her very much.
I dont know what the future is going to look like.
If she is no longer there it becomes a different thing.
When the news initially dropped that Amazon was getting sole control of Bond, people were pissed.
Fans, casual watchers, etc.
What I personally expected is that, on the industry end, it really wouldn’t mean much.
Actors and directors would still be interested because it’s James Bond.
IT could use some freshening up.
Something new stylistically with the next iteration of the character to keep things fresh.
And as much as I mocked the idea of spinoffs, weirder things have worked out.
Like the writer of the THR article noted, should something like ‘The Penguin’ have worked?
I don’t trust Amazon as the ones to do it.
Mostly because their track record with expensive franchises so far is not great.
- The Boys: Kind of a mixed bag.
So what should the next step for Amazon be?
If you ask me, they need to find their Feige.
Who could that be?
I’d say Jonathan Nolan.
