Los Angeles, May 26, 2021: In a landmark deal, Amazon.com Inc., an American tech giant, has bought the iconic Hollywood movie studio, MGM (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer) for a massive sum of $8.45 billion, on Wednesday.

The new deal between Amazon and MGM will add a vast collection of Hollywood classics and franchises to Amazon's mix. MGM boasts a film library of around 4,000 titles and 17,000 hours of TV programming, including the Bond, Rocky/Creed, and The Hobbit film franchises.



Meanwhile, the billion-dollar deal came at a time when the 25th installment in the James Bond film series - No Time to Die, is only a few months away from its worldwide theatrical release. The question, however, arises whether "No Time To Die" will release in theaters or it will go directly to Amazon Prime Video.

Well, there is some breather for cinemas in this regard as longtime James Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are determined to keep the Bond franchise on the big screen in the wake of mega deal.

"We are committed to continuing to make James Bond films for the worldwide theatrical audience", Broccoli and Wilson said in a statement out of London, where they run Bond home Eon Productions, according to The Hollywood Reporter.



No Time To Die, after being delayed numerous times because of the pandemic, is set to hit theaters on October 8 (USA) this year (the Amazon-MGM deal won't likely be closed then). MGM subsidiary United Artists Releasing is distributing the highly anticipated tentpole domestically, while Universal Pictures International is handling overseas duties.

Directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, the movie features Daniel Craig in his final turn as 007. It also stars Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch, Ana de Armas, Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Jeffrey Wright, Christoph Waltz, among others in pivotal roles.
