Donald Glover has not yet invited us back to Atlanta but it looks like he’ll be sailing in the Amazon soon – the big studio, that’s it. According sources via The Hollywood Reporter, the artist-creator signed a major general agreement with Amazon with the next content set to debut on the company’s Prime Video platform.
The “multi-year, eight-digit” agreement will include “a content channel that will highlight Glover’s work and other content curated on Amazon’s Prime Video hub,” according to THR. Furthermore, this will be a family affair because your brother, Atlanta Writer and producer Stephen Glover also signed a general agreement with Amazon.
This means that he will step away from his business with FX, although I must mention that it will not affect his series Atlanta, as this will continue to be streamed on FX. It is similar to Kenya Barris leaving ABC on Netflix, but still having ongoing content with ABC as part of her previous deal. So, put your mind at ease, although I don’t think she’s at ease, because we still don’t have a solid return date for seasons 3 and 4 of Atlanta.
This is a big deal, but it doesn’t stop there. Malia Obama is also involved! How?! Well, THR has the tea:
The deal with Amazon, which has been going on for weeks, will also cause Glover’s executive to produce other projects for the retail giant and streamer. Sources note that one of these projects is already beginning to take shape: a potential series called Hive, who say it revolves around a figure like Beyoncé and originates from writer Janine Nabers (watchmakers, A way) The project has already started to occupy a newsroom, with sources noting that Malia Obama is among those recruited to work on the series.
G / O Media can receive a commission
As for Malia’s career path, this makes sense as she already admitted at The Weinstein Company in Hollywood during his gap year. In addition, like the Glovers, the entertainment business is already in the family with Malia’s parents, Barack and Michelle actively working on the content as part of the deal with Netflix.
Along with this next list of Amazon Prime Video content, Donald recently announced that he would create, produce executive and star in a revival of Mrs. and Mrs. Smith with Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Flea bag) That was a total failure when it came to audience expectation and excitement, because absolutely no one believes that they could do chemistry on the screen. Plus, you have the seemingly impossible feat of adequately following Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s hot and hot act in the 2005 original.
Amazon declined to comment on the news or any additional details, such as Hive and Obama’s reported involvement by THR. The root contacted representatives from Donald Glover and Malia Obama to comment on this news.
