The contestants will literally be stepping into the worlds of the movies, with the teaser showing off the iconic, stunning locations of some of the challenges, including the Scottish Highlands, Chile’s Atacama Desert, Venice, and the Swiss Alps (bonus points if you can name the films where they’re set).

“I put real people into a James Bond adventure to win £1 million. The only thing standing in their way is me,” Brian Cox’s Controller says, described as the “on-screen mastermind behind the game, who dictates where the pairs go, what they must do, and sets their questions. He monitors each pair’s quest, delighting in the unfolding drama of his intricately devised and often relentless challenges.”

“The Controller has hidden 10 questions around the world for each pair of contestants, who have a chance of winning £1,000,000. To reach these questions, the pairs face Bond-inspired challenges, which push their physical strength and mental reserves to the limit. Each question is worth an increasing amount of money, and if answered correctly, they bank the cash and continue to the next question. If they get it wrong, their journey is over.”

007: Road to a Million hits Prime Video on November 10. You can find out what we know about Bond 26 here, and check out the rest of our James Bond coverage here.
