[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”29956″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Fleabag creator and star Phoebe Waller-Bridge had a successful night at the Emmy’s – taking home several awards. Now, the good times aren’t ending for the talented actress. Waller-Bridge just signed a major deal with Amazon Studios, where she will develop new projects for the massive streaming platform.
Waller-Bridge commented:
“I’m insanely excited to be continuing my relationship with Amazon. Working with the team on Fleabag was the creative partnership dreams are made of. It really feels like home. I can’t wait to get going!”
You can both seasons of the comedy/drama Fleabag on Amazon Studios. The second season was a particular hit, winning for best comedy, as well as for acting and writing. Harry Bradbeer also took home an award for directing. In total, season two earned six Emmys, meaning we are all excited to see what Waller-Bridge comes up with next.
Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon Studios, commented on the deal:
“We are thrilled to be continuing our partnership with Phoebe at Amazon Studios. As evident in her great success at the Emmy Awards this week, she is clever, brilliant, generous and a virtuoso on multiple fronts including writing, acting and producing. Fleabag has been a gift to our Prime Video customers and we are excited for what comes next from this brilliant mind to dazzle and delight our global audience.”
Waller-Bridge is someone to pay attention to. On top of her success of Fleabag, she created and executive produces Killing Eve and executive produces HBO’s upcoming series Run. She also went in to rewrite the script of Daniel Craig’s final run as James Bond in No Time to Die.
