"007's Road to a Million," to be filmed in many of the same locations as classic Bond films, will stream worldwide on Prime Video later this year--the former Logan Roy will play "The Controller," a Bond-villain type who will direct and misdirect teams of two as they take on missions to win $1.2M US:

Obviously, Amazon made an offer that they (and Cox) couldn't refuse. I will be curious if any of the current Bond supporting cast, including John Cleese and Dame Judi Dench, will appear in the series. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
