Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, the former hosts of the popular car show Top Gear have found a new home on Amazon’s streaming video service.
The trio each announced the news of their new exclusive deal with Amazon, and Amazon followed up by tweeting a landing page urging those who are interested to sign up for Amazon Prime.
Amazon states that the first show will go into production shortly and arrive exclusively on Amazon Prime in 2016.
The show also includes Top Gear’s former executive producer Andy Wilman.
“I feel like I’ve climbed out of a bi-plane and into a spaceship,” says Clarkson about the Amazon deal.
