ROAD TO A MILLION Hosted By Brian Cox — GeekTyrant

Oct 24, 2023


Prime Video has released the first trailer for its upcoming James Bond reality series 007: Road to a Million. Yep, the James Bond franchise has resorted to this. The series is hosted by Succession star Brian Cox, who controls “the fate of the show’s contestants as they go on a Bond-style race around the world in the hopes of winning a £1 million ($1.2 million) cash prize. Among the 007-inspired destinations they visit are the Scottish Highlands, Venice and Jamaica.”There are nine pairs of wannabe James Bonds as they take on challenges inspired by the iconic spy. Cox says in the clip, “I put real people into a James Bond adventure to win £1 million. The only thing standing in their way is me.”The project is a collaboration between Eon, Amazon Studios, 72 Films and MGM Alternative. Eon Productions owns the rights to James Bond and this is the first time ever that they’ve permitted the IP to be used in unscripted TV.Eon head Barbara Broccoli said: “People have always come to us about doing a TV show, [saying,] ‘Oh, you should do a Bond challenge. But we always stayed away from it because we didn’t want to put people in danger and have them do dangerous things, because it’s not for members of the public — it’s for trained professionals.”The show looks like it would be fun to actually be a part of! But I don’t really watch these kinds of reality shows. So, maybe I’ll just try to get in on the action!007: Road to a Million will launch on Prime Video on November 10th.
