007: Road to a Million – release date, trailer, how to watch the Bond game show
Amazon Prime Video is launching a brand-new reality show inspired by the James Bond film franchise. 007: Road to a Million will see everyday people travel the globe in a series of Bond-inspired challenges, pushing their physical and mental prowess to the limit for a shot at a £1m prize.
The series is officially licensed by Eon Productions and long-time Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. It marks the first time the producers have allowed the Bond IP to be used in an unscripted show, and with casting for series two already open, they must believe they have a hit on their hands.
007: Road to a Million comes included with a subscription to Prime Video, and can be viewed without paying a penny thanks to Amazon’s 30-day free trial. What’s more, Bond fans can get in the mood for the series by streaming the entire James Bond film collection with a subscription to Prime Video.

Amazon is also launching two new and improved, high-spec Fire TV Sticks to watch them on, both with improved speeds, full 4K support, Dolby Atmos audio, Dolby Vision, HDR, HLG, and HDR10+. Shoppers can benefit from two amazing deals on the impressive pieces of kit.

What is 007: Road to a Million about?
007: Road to a Million follows nine pairs of everyday people as they are unleashed on an epic global adventure through a series of Bond-inspired challenges, all vying for a shot at a life-changing £1m prize. Succession star Brian Cox fronts the show as The Controller, an enigmatic character who controls the fate of the contestants.

In total, he has hidden 10 questions around the world for each pair, who each have a chance of winning the jackpot.
To reach these questions, the pairs face gut-wrenching Bond-inspired challenges that will test the limits of their physical and mental strength. Each question is worth an increasing amount of money – if answered correctly, they bank the cash and continue to the next question, but get it wrong and the journey is over.
The series will see contestants on a globe-trotting adventure to a host of locations familiar to Bond fans, with locales including the Scottish Highlands, Chile’s Atacama Desert, Jamaica, Venice and the Swiss Alps. The character's iconic Aston Martin DB5 will also make an appearance.
