Prime Video & Amazon Studios, a privately owned entity parented by Amazon and headquartered in the US, was founded in 2006 and employs approximately 2680 individuals. The company reported $6.7B in revenue as of 2025. Functioning as a global subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) and over-the-top (OTT) streaming television service, the platform was originally launched in the United States as Amazon Unbox, undergoing multiple rebrandings before expanding into an international digital distribution service available in over 240 countries and territories. The service operates primarily as a hybrid entertainment ecosystem, distributing a library of feature films and television series produced by Amazon MGM Studios—branded as Amazon Originals—alongside licensed studio properties, live sports broadcasting partnerships (including the NFL, NBA, and UEFA Champions League), and integrated transactional video-on-demand (TVOD) digital rentals.
On September 8, Prime Video detailed its new original, "The Needle," a story where Moro returns to Alma Ata to collect owed money, discovers his former girlfriend Dina's morphine addiction, and commits to helping her combat the local drug mafia. Earlier that day, an industry report highlighted "Streaming's Latino Paradox," observing that while major digital streaming channels extensively promote Hispanic Heritage Month programming and see record audience engagement, production budgets for such content are diminishing. This followed Prime Video's announcement of its largest-ever young adult international originals slate, with new productions from Spain, France, Germany, Italy, and India slated for release from September and into 2027. This expanded slate, which doubles down on young adult programming after global successes like "Off Campus" and "Maxton Hall," includes titles such as "Obsessed Retreat: Class of '26" and featured the release of first official images from "Boys of Tommen," an adaptation of Chloe Walsh's bestselling novel.
