‘Spider-Man’, ‘Harry Potter’ Producers Team Up For New ‘James Bond’ Movie

March 26, 2025: Amazon MGM has officially confirmed that renowned producers Amy Pascal and David Heyman will take the reins for the next James Bond film, marking a significant shift in the franchise’s production history. This will be the first Bond film produced outside the control of the Broccoli family, who have managed the iconic spy series since its inception.

Amy Pascal, known for her work on the Spider-Man franchise, and David Heyman, the mind behind the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films, will produce the next Bond movie under their respective banners, Pascal Pictures and Heyday Films. The transition comes after a major deal between Amazon MGM and long-time Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, who have overseen the franchise for decades.

Courtenay Valenti, head of film at Amazon MGM Studios, praised Pascal and Heyman for their extensive experience in franchise filmmaking, emphasizing the responsibility of continuing the Bond legacy. “We are approaching every creative decision with James Bond, which Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson have so masterfully steered, with the greatest sense of responsibility,” Valenti said. “Amy Pascal and David Heyman are two of the most accomplished, experienced, and respected film producers in our industry.”

In a joint statement, Pascal and Heyman expressed their excitement for the new chapter in the Bond franchise. “James Bond is one of the most iconic characters in the history of cinema. We are humbled to follow in the footsteps of Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson, who made so many extraordinary films, and honored and excited to keep the spirit of Bond very much alive as he embarks on his next adventure.”

While Amazon MGM has yet to announce further details about the upcoming film, speculation is rife about who will take on the iconic role of James Bond following Daniel Craig’s departure from the franchise. Fans are eagerly awaiting news on the next actor to portray the legendary spy.
