Amazon Studios has confirmed not only his role as director but also as executive producer, signaling a bold new chapter for the franchise.

It’s a serious pivot that could redefine 007 for the modern era. We also briefly discuss what fans can expect from a Villeneuve-led Bond and what it says about Amazon’s vision for the franchise.
