Amazon enters nine-figure deal with ‘Westworld’ creators to develop exclusive content for Prime Video

Amazon has just signed Westworld’s showrunners Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy, and their company Kilter films to develop original shows for Prime Video. It’s said to be a low-to-mid nine-figure deal that covers a four-to-five year period, which is believed to be worth upwards of US$30 million a year. The couple will be leaving Warner Bros TV but they will continue to be showrunners for HBO’s Westworld. They are still signed up to write and executive produce more seasons of the how. Engadget reports the first show they might work on could be the sci-fi drama series, The Peripheral. But we’re going to have to wait and see what they have cooking up.
