EON Productions, the company controlled by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, has filed an earnings report in the UK revealing that Amazon MGM Studios paid $20 million for its stake in 007! Amazon MGM Studios declined to comment. Here’s the full note in the EON Productions earnings report: “On 20 February 2025, the company entered into an agreement for the sale of its interest in the Bond franchise, all associated assets as well as its subsidiary companies, B24 Limited and B25 Limited. The total consideration for the sale amounted to $20 million (USD).” This is significantly short of the $1B figure reported when the Bond deal was agreed, but as Deadline noted at the time, the structure of the joint venture was unknown and could have included Amazon stock options. Sources say that Amazon’s deal with EON is structured as a joint venture, and over time the Broccoli company is going to get paid. Amazon has the majority stake. The $20M is believed to be an initial payment, with EON getting recompensed in different ways over time. This payment was part of the deal, not the entirety of the deal. https://deadline.com/2025/10/amazon-mgm ... 236594201/

That is probably just the preproduction money, money Babs charged to produce nothing for 5 years. It was said at the time of dad eon charged/was paid $20million for preproduction, then the rest of the movie cost came in.

Basically I doubt it’s anything to do with the rights which is held by danjaq .
