Wow, a few items here:

  1. Had anyone heard of it?
  2. IMDb is apparently owned by Amazon?
  3. IMDB had a streaming service?

Biggest way I knew of them was the Alex rider tv show. It was released on Freevee

Edit: been a fan of Alex rider since I read the books when I was younger.

I knew about this, but as a Prime Original. I guess it was put out on Freevee later?
