Sentenced to a month-long exile in New Orleans, James Bond’s seduction of a hypnotic vampire ignites a devastating curse—her bite makes him a day walker, torn between saving the woman he once loved, now a thrall of an ancient vampire lord, and resisting the anguished call of his own darkening soul, as he allies with a broken vampire-hunting duo to shatter an empire that could cost him everything he’s ever held dear.

"Live Twice, Die Once" reimagines the world’s greatest spy, James Bond, in a blood-soaked crucible of horror and espionage. Sent on a forced respite to New Orleans after years of relentless missions, Bond’s charm ensnares a hypnotic woman who turns out to be a vampire, her bite transforming him into a day walker—a hybrid teetering between man and monster. As he battles the seductive pull of his own darkness, Bond allies with a haunted pair of vampire hunters to dismantle the empire of the son of Vlad, a centuries-old Transylvanian tyrant who’s turned the bayou into a cesspool of trafficking, blood-drugs, and assassins—all while holding Bond’s lost love, Camille, as his thrall. Each episode is a pulse-pounding gauntlet of espionage and gore, where Bond’s every choice risks his soul, his allies, and the world itself.

It’s a high-stakes gamble for MGM Amazon: a genre-bending, character-driven thrill ride that leverages the Bond legacy while carving a bold new path for streaming audiences craving fresh, gritty takes on iconic IPs.
