Insiders suggest that Amazon's vision for Bond may involve making the character less "dangerous" and more adaptable across media like television and video games. This approach, however, faces pushback from traditionalists who see Bond as a symbol of escapist adventure and hyper-masculinity.

Making Bond more "realistic" or neutering his character risks losing that charm.
