Future James Bond films will continue to be screened in cinemas, despite Amazon’s deal to buy the movie studio that co-owns the rights to 007.
The tech giant bought MGM in a purchase worth $8.45bn (£5.97bn) this week.
Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson stressed that the deal did not mean the spy would be pushed solely to Amazon’s streaming service.
“We are committed to continuing to make James Bond films for the worldwide theatrical audience,” they said.
