James Bond needs your help! Protect the legacy of the Bond franchise
The Issue
The future of James Bond is at risk. For over 60 years, James Bond has been more than just a film character — he’s an icon of cinema, storytelling, and cultural heritage.
This petition is a call to all James Bond fans around the world to help protect the Bond legacy from the profit- and data-driven vision of Amazon, therein threatening to ruin the iconic heritage of Bond that has carefully been built since 1962.
Background:
The current standoff reported by the Wall Street Journal between James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli and Amazon MGM Studios, who owns the rights to the films since 2022, is about the vision for the future of the Bond films.
Amazon's vision is to prioritize profit-driven strategies, including ideas for Bond spin-offs, TV shows, and algorithm-based content decisions. These corporate ambitions risk diluting the essence of James Bond and reducing it to just another piece of streaming "content."
We, the fans of James Bond, call on Amazon to:
- Respect Barbara Broccoli's creative authority and her proven vision for Bond, including the casting of the next 007.
- Preserve the cinematic essence of James Bond and prioritize cinema releases over generic streaming adaptations on Amazon Prime Video.
- Prioritize cinematic storytelling over profit-driven, algorithmic decision-making.
Sign this petition and join us in urging Amazon to respect Barbara Broccoli’s vision that have defined Bond, and ensure that the world’s most famous spy remains an icon of cinema, not just another entry in a streaming library.
James Bond is not just content. He’s a legacy. Let’s protect it.
