The last “James Bond” film was released some time ago, but now Agent 007 is reappearing–this time as a reality show on Amazon Prime Video. TECHBOOK reveals what it’s all about.

“James Bond” is embarking on new adventures. However, it’s not a film but a game show series available on Amazon Prime Video. The reality format is called “007: Road to a Million.” The name of the new “James Bond” series directly hints at its direction.

The Concept of “007: Road to a Million”

About a year ago, the streaming service Amazon Prime Video announced a new “James Bond” format. The first trailer has since been released, showing that it’s not a “boring” studio show but rather action-packed and adventurous.

Eighteen contestants must solve various tasks, puzzles, etc., in teams of two. This requires not only intelligence but also a good deal of courage and endurance.

At the center is the so-called “Controller,” played by Scottish actor Brian Cox. He acts as the showmaster, presenting the participants with questions and tasks that are quite tricky and daring. He also oversees the participants. The pairs must complete ten missions or questions. The winning pair will receive a prize of one million British pounds.
