Perhaps MGM’s biggest and most prestigious franchise, the 007 brand was likely the biggest part of Amazon's purchasing decision. From the extensive collection of classic films to the current popularity brought by the Daniel Craig era, James Bond is an excellent acquisition, both for building out Amazon's streaming library and for developing new ori...
The Handmaid’s Tale was MGM’s last major hit. The show has been a sweeping success and overall cultural phenomenon since its first season debuted on Hulu, and that popularity shows no signs of dying down. With a fifth season already planned and a spinoff/Handmaid's Tale sequel series supposedly on the way, the franchise will only be expanding its r...
While nowhere near as widely impactful as the last two franchises, Fargo has nonetheless found a distinct and dedicated fan base through season 4 of Fargo's recent TV run. The series has shown that it has longevity across time and varying media platforms. It may not exactly be ripe for mass expansion, but it should remain a popular piece of any med...
Out of all the titles on this list, Stargate seems like the one most primed for major rebooting. While there’s been little movement in the popular sci-fi franchise of late, a transfer of rights could set Stargate up for a climactic return. The series has spanned both film and television successfully, and its core concept leaves a nearly endless lis...
There was a time when the Rocky name had lost some of its luster, but the recent success of the Creed films has brought it back into the spotlight in a major way. The films remain classics with a huge fan following – certainly one of the biggest catalog additions Amazon got in the MGM acquisition. On top of that, the future of the franchise looks b...
With the announcement that Legally Blonde 3 is being written for a planned 2022 release, the series is likely headed to another peak in popularity. Reese Witherspoon’s performance as Elle Woods is one of the most iconic and beloved of the early 2000s. The additional success of the 2007 Broadway musical adaptation only expanded Legally Blonde’s cult...
Vikings is the sort of series where the base concept is so open-ended that it could spawn any number of additional spinoffs or other ancillary content in the future. In Amazon's hands, any of those possibilities could become a reality. The main series just finished its extended run recently, but a spinoff, Vikings: Valhalla, is already in developme...
Over the decades, The Pink Panther has tried its hand at a number of different platforms and iterations – sometimes to immense success, sometimes to less stellar performances. It doesn’t seem like the kind of franchise with immediate future potential, but the numerous existing films – especially classics like Return of the Pink Panther – are great ...
The rights situation for The Silence of the Lambs is complicated and a bit confusing. MGM only ever owned part of the franchise's story and characters – specifically, those that originated in the original Silence of the Lambs novel. Characters who originated in Red Dragon, the prequel, belong to a separate company. That means that MGM did not own H...
Last on our list is a stalwart of classic sci-fi action. Robocop has primarily lived off nostalgia and affection for the original films since its heyday ended years ago, though the 2014 reboot was met with a relatively positive reception upon its initial release as well. It’s also a series that’s been successful across different media, including to...
