Brian Cox has been the center of attention in the television world following his character Logan Roy’s surprise death on Succession, HBO's award-mongering hit drama. Cox portrayed the fictional head of an international media conglomerate to great success and acclaim (and interview notoriety) before his time with that show came to an end. Now, the 76-year-old actor will be jumping over to streaming for his next gig, which involves both James Bond and the actor's own homeland.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cox has boarded Amazon Studios' new and unscripted competition series, 007’s Road to a Million, and as its title suggests, it will have a strong focus on James Bond. The Emmy winner’s will be playing a character of sorts called “The Controller” on the game show, and he'll somewhat act as a master of ceremonies, taking part in controlling the fate of the contestants on the show as they travel internationally while competing in a series of Bond-inspired challenges. Sounds like a dream gig for anyone who's followed the internationally renowned spy franchise.
