CNN: The ‘James Bond’ property is changing hands

CNN reports that the creative control of the “James Bond” film series – based on the Ian Fleming books – is being handed off from longtime producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli to Amazon MGM Studios.
Ian Fleming based his stories on a real person: Count Robin de la Lanne Mirrlees Baron of Inchdrewer, an English nobleman (with a number of UK and other European titles and castles and estates around Europe) who was once a member of the UK secret service and became the inspirator of James Bond. He created the slogan “The World is not enough”. Count Robin and Ian Fleming were well acquainted and exchanged ideas and life experiences which became parts of the novels of Fleming. Count Robin died in 2012 on his island in the North of Scotland. The author of this article received from Count Robin’s estate the Inchdrewer Castle and the baronial title and makes sure that Count Robin and his legacy to the World will always be remembered.
The transfer of the producer’s rights to US based Amazon MGM must be observed with the hope that the true English nobleman James Bond will not lose his longtime qualities for a short-lived political message. James Bond is an eternal figure, which is his unique selling proposition, and shall not become a victime of the mainstream media. But as always, James Bond would find a way also out of this, out of the mainstream media’s prison cage.
