Amazon Deal

In 2021, after several years working under a pact with FX, Donald signed an "eight figure" multi-year exclusive deal to produce shows for Amazon. The initial plan was to give Donald his own channel on Amazon, but that ultimately did not come to fruition. For an understanding of what an eight figure Amazon deal might actually look like, we can usePhoebe Waller-Bridgeas a comp. Days after winning the 2019 Emmy for "Fleabag,"Phoebe signed a 3-year, $60 million deal with Amazon. She was at one point slated to co-produce "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" with Donald for Amazon, but the partnership broke up over creative differences. In the end, Phoebedid not produce a single episode of content for her $60 millionand somehow she signed yet another $60 million deal with Amazon in 2023. It's likely that Donald's deal is comparable, so presumably in the 3-year, $60 million range.
