Amazon boss Jeff Bezos to push wife Lauren Sánchez for big role in James Bond reboot despite her lack of acting background: Report

Amazon boss Jeff Bezos is making waves beyond the tech world with plans to catapult his wife, Lauren Sánchez, into a major acting role in Hollywood's upcoming James Bond reboot. Insiders say the billionaire's determination to see Sánchez on screen has become a serious priority, leveraging his growing influence in the entertainment industry to make it happen. Sources reveal Bezos' strong push to cast Lauren Sánchez in James Bond reboot According to OK Magazine, Bezos has developed a strong fixation on casting Lauren Sánchez in the new Bond film, describing the ambition as 'obsessed'. Despite Sánchez, a former journalist, not being a professional actress, Bezos' recent acquisition of MGM Studios grants him significant authority over casting and production decisions. According to sources, Sánchez is regarded as his muse, and with billions invested, Bezos expects his vision to be realised. Amazon's $8 billion acquisition of MGM expands Bezos' Hollywood power The 2022 purchase of MGM Studios by Bezos for $8 billion greatly expands his foothold in the entertainment industry. MGM's rich catalogue includes iconic franchises such as James Bond and Rocky, placing Bezos in a prime position to influence major upcoming productions. This acquisition has transformed Bezos from a tech mogul into a major Hollywood player with the ability to shape blockbuster projects. James Bond 26 reboot introduces a new creative team and sparks casting speculation The upcoming James Bond 26 reboot is set to be directed by Denis Villeneuve and penned by Steven Knight, marking a fresh creative direction for the franchise. With Daniel Craig stepping down from the role of 007, the search for a new Bond has triggered widespread debate. Bezos himself fuelled speculation by tweeting about potential candidates for the role earlier this year. Rumours have since linked Lauren Sánchez to a significant part in the film, heightening interest in the reboot. Bezos and Sánchez's dreamy Venice wedding Bezos and Sánchez officially got married on June 27, 2025. The ceremony took place on the stunning island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, Italy, and it was quite the star-studded affair. Over 200 guests showed up, including celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Tom Brady. The couple even arrived by helicopter; talk about making an entrance! Instead of asking for traditional gifts, they encouraged everyone to donate to local charities in Venice, showing some love to their host city. Their relationship first made headlines back in early 2019, right after Bezos announced his divorce from MacKenzie Scott. Lauren had just finalised her split from talent agent Patrick Whitesell. But the pair had been quietly seeing each other since around 2016. Fast forward a few years, and Bezos popped the question in May 2023 during a romantic trip to the South of France. It was the start of their official journey toward marriage. After the wedding, Jeff and Lauren kicked off their honeymoon with a grand European adventure. Recently, they were spotted having a blast in Ibiza, Spain, dancing the night away at a nightclub. Meanwhile, fans are eagerly awaiting more updates on the James Bond reboot, including casting details. With Lauren Sánchez's rumored involvement, it will be interesting to see how longtime fans respond to this development.

Brian Cox Returns As ‘The Controller' In High-Stakes 007: Road To A Million Series 2; Trailer Out Now

Prime Video has dropped the trailer for 007: Road To A Million Series 2, with Brian Cox returning as the enigmatic 'Controller.' Prime Video has unveiled the adrenaline-pumping trailer for the second season of 007: Road To A Million, along with brand-new key art and an intriguing first look at Brian Cox, who reprises his role as the enigmatic 'Controller." The eight-part UK Original series will stream globally from August 22, 2025. This time, Cox's 'Controller" is back with a bigger presence — operating from an elaborate control room where he sets the challenges, evaluates performances, and delivers his trademark wry, deadpan commentary. Joining him is his formidable right-hand woman, Sofia, played by Frances McNamee, adding a fresh dynamic to the high-stakes proceedings. 'Returning as The Controller this time around, the series feels more high-octane, more immersive, and definitely more Bond," Cox said in a statement. 'The challenges are bigger, the drama runs deeper, and I've got the best seat in the house to watch it unfold." The second series promises an expanded narrative, offering viewers a tantalising glimpse into The Controller's global network and the shadowy organisation he represents. The stakes are higher than ever — with the final surviving pair returning to London to face The Controller himself for a life-changing £1 million prize. In true 007 style, eight pairs of everyday contestants will embark on a jaw-dropping globe-trotting adventure inspired by the Bond franchise. From scaling dizzying heights on Bangkok towers to nerve-shredding shark dives in the Bahamas, the challenges will push their physical endurance, mental grit, and even their relationships to breaking point. After each leg, the slowest teams will have to survive the nerve-wracking 'Killer Question" or face elimination. Ultimately, only one duo will make it to the final showdown in London — where The Controller awaits with the ultimate test. Drawing on the glamour, danger, and intrigue of James Bond, 007: Road To A Million Series 2 aims to surpass the thrills of its debut season, introducing bigger stunts, more intense drama, and a deeper dive into the game's shadowy backstory. The series launches exclusively on Prime Video worldwide on August 22, 2025. Fans can catch the newly released trailer online and prepare to be well and truly shaken — and stirred.

Aamir Khan gambles with YouTube release, experts doubt pay-per-view traction

Aamir Khan's bold move to release his latest movie Sitaare Zameen Par on YouTube, after a theatrical stint, instead of selling its rights to a streaming platform may not pay off, trade experts cautioned. The pay-per-view model on YouTube could help the film make just about ₹25-30 crore over the next few months as audiences pay ₹100 for each viewing, with the revenue to be split in a ratio of 55:45 in favour of the popular actor. By comparison, an OTT deal would have brought Khan at least ₹125 crore, they said. Also TVoD (transaction video-on-demand), or pay-per-view, hasn't really taken off in the country even as piracy continues to pose a big challenge to the movie business. 'TVoD is an established protocol internationally and even companies like Zee and Amazon have tried it domestically. So, it's not like it's never been attempted before. But deals like this definitely don't help make as much as an upfront OTT deal and it is likely that the film will eventually make its way to an SVoD (subscription video on demand) platform, albeit at a much lower price than would have been offered initially," said a film producer on the condition of anonymity. This person further pointed out that compared to mature markets like the West, not premiering the film on OTT is unlikely to have helped it find a big theatrical draw or bolstered its collections by a huge margin. Also, given that Sitaare Zamin Par's release strategy is the first experiment of its kind, it hasn't made adequate noise and marketing has been below par. On the other hand, services like Netflix and Prime Video go all out to promote films acquired after the theatrical release, coordinating media and fan interactions and special promos. YouTube, that works as a platform for all user-generated content, rarely pushes for individual titles to the same degree. On the launch of the film on YouTube, Khan had admitted in a conversation with Mint that TVoD has seen fairly low traction in India so far. But recent developments could aid its growth. 'UPI has ensured the payments mechanism is no longer cumbersome. Add to that improving internet penetration and a platform with such a large footprint, and I think this is the right time to experiment with pay-per-view," Khan had added. According to Comscore data for March 2024, YouTube reached four in five internet users in India aged 18. Entertainment-related content represented over 7.5 billion daily views on YouTube in 2024. Film producer Shariq Patel welcomed the experiment, saying it's encouraging that Indian creators like Khan are adopting the globally-established six-week window between a film's theatrical debut and its online release, including pay-per-view. 'But the practice needs to be followed consistently by others in the industry. It would be difficult for consumer behaviour to evolve if this is just a one-off," Patel added. To be sure, some industry experts believe that Khan's move makes business sense given the wide reach of YouTube, something that no OTT platform, foreign or homegrown, can match. The Ficci-EY media and entertainment report said YouTube reached 800 million in India in 2024, and average daily YouTube consumption by online adults aged 35 years or above stood at 80-plus minutes. 'Plus, they will get data on viewership and engagement more easily, something that platforms such as Netflix and Prime Video rarely part with. This would help them plan content and marketing strategies, going forward," said Yusuf Shaikh, business head of feature films at production and distribution firm Percept Pictures.
