Former Top Gear trio to make new motoring show for Amazon Prime, coming in 2016
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are reuniting to create an all-new car show, exclusively for Amazon Prime. The show will be produced by the trio’s long time executive producer Andy Wilman.
On working with Amazon, Clarkson said “I feel like I've climbed out of a bi-plane and into a spaceship.”
Hammond added: “Amazon? Oh yes. I have already been there. I got bitten by a bullet ant.”
May said: “We have become part of the new age of smart TV. Ironic, isn't it?”
“Customers told us they wanted to see the team back on screen, and we are excited to make that happen,” said Jay Marine, vice president of Amazon Prime Video EU. “Millions of Prime members are already enjoying our ground-breaking original shows. We can’t wait to see what Jeremy, Richard, James and the team will create in what is sure to be one of the most globally anticipated shows of 2016.”
The first show will go into production shortly and arrive exclusively on Amazon Prime in 2016.
