Donald Glover Signs Rich Amazon Deal

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that Donald Glover has exited his pact with Disney-owned FX for a multiple-year, eight-figure overall deal with Amazon. The pact is believed to include a content channel of sorts that will spotlight Glover’s work and other curated content on Amazon’s Prime Video hub.

Additionally, Stephen Glover has also signed an overall deal with Amazon. The Amazon deal will also see Glover exec produce other projects for the company. Sources note one such project is already beginning to come together: a potential series called Hive, which is rumored to revolve around a Beyonce-like figure and stem from writer Janine Nabers (Watchmen, Away). The project has already begun staffing a writers room, with sources noting Malia Obama is among those recruited to work on the series.

Glover has worked with Amazon before for his film “Guava Island” and announced last week his involvement with the “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” film arriving in 2022 on Amazon.
