Amazon's takeover of the James Bond franchise has been branded 'absolutely terrible news' amid fears it will 'diluted or exploited and possibly be turned into a TV series.



Amazon's takeover of the James Bond franchise has been criticized as "absolutely terrible news," with fears that the iconic 007 story could be diluted, exploited, or turned into a TV series. Longtime producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, who have managed the franchise for 30 years, have handed over creative control to Amazon MGM Studios, formed after Amazon acquired Bond's parent studio in 2022. Reports suggest tensions between the Broccoli family and Amazon, with insiders claiming the family "cut their losses" due to inability to work amicably with the tech giant. Fans fear the takeover could lead to a loss of quality control and an endless stream of sequels, with some comparing it to other franchises exploited by entertainment giants. The Broccolis, seen as guardians of the Bond legacy, have stepped back, leaving the future of the franchise uncertain under Amazon's control.
