| 7 | Online retailer Creator/{{Amazon}} announced in 2010 that it would start providing original television shows and movies. Thus, '''Amazon Studios''' was born, with their content distributed through Creator/PrimeVideo. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | Amazon Studios existed in its earliest form as Amazon Unbox, which later became Prime Video. Like competitor Creator/{{Netflix}}, they began producing their own original content in 2013, with Prime serving as the distribution service for works created by Amazon Studios. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Though their focus was originally on episodic television, Amazon began producing and co-distributing films in 2015, with Creator/SpikeLee's ''Chi-Raq'' --co-distributed by Roadside Attractions-- serving as their inaugural release. But unlike Netflix, which (with some exceptions) exclusively screens their own original movies on the service itself, films produced by Amazon Studios were typically first distributed in theaters, and later made available on Prime Video. This makes them eligible for contention by major awards organizations, [[FollowTheLeader which Netflix has since (partly) adopted]] to make their own productions award contenders. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | The biggest beneficiary of this model to date is perhaps 2016's ''Film/ManchesterByTheSea'', which won star Creator/CaseyAffleck over 40 acting accolades, including the UsefulNotes/AcademyAward for Best Actor, as well Best Original Screenplay for Kenneth Lonergan. As well, ''Film/TheSalesman'', with Cohen Media Group, went on to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in 2017. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | In 2017, Amazon began distributing many of its productions on its own, beginning with Creator/WoodyAllen's ''Film/WonderWheel''[[labelnote:*]](ironically, they would cut ties with Allen shortly afterwards)[[/labelnote]]. However, this resulted in a string of box office failures that led the company to begin adopting Netflix's streaming-first model more frequently. With the onset of the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic, Amazon Studios has shifted almost entirely to a digital strategy, even picking up intended-for-theatrical films from other studios such as ''Film/BoratSubsequentMoviefilm'' and ''Film/Coming2America'' - the former of which became their first film (and the first streaming original film) to win a Best Picture UsefulNotes/GoldenGlobeAward. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Following the announcement of Amazon's then-impending acquisition of Creator/MetroGoldwynMayer, the label's future is in flux as it remains to be seen whether the two entities will merge. In 2023, Amazon Studios was renamed to Amazon MGM Studios to be more in line with the MGM brand and consolidating MGM Holdings and its subsidiaries as a result and began using MGM's iconic VanityPlate as an opening logo for their later productions. |
