Prime Video has shaken things up as fans continue to patiently wait for the announcement of who will be the next 007 star.
All 25 official Bond films available to stream worldwide on Amazon Prime Video. The official James Bond Twitter account shared the announcement, giving Prime members access to every classic mission of Ian Fleming’s legendary British spy.
The timing of this release is no coincidence, as it comes just ahead of James Bond Day on October 5, marking the anniversary of the first Bond film, Dr. No, which hit cinemas on that date in 1962.
The partnership between Prime Video and Bond fits well, given Amazon’s acquisition of MGM, the long-time distributor of the franchise, though Eon Productions still retains creative control over the series.
Prime also streams , a game show hosted by Brian Cox, but there’s still no word on when fans can expect Bond’s next outing after No Time to Die saw the character meet his end in 2021. Eon Productions has kept tight-lipped about casting and hasn’t confirmed meeting with any actors for the iconic role.
