Phoebe Waller-Bridge [1] sashayed her way off the stage at the 71st Annual Emmy Awards [2] with an armful of trophies [3] for her work on Amazon's Fleabag [4], and it sounds like she already has a few other award-worthy ideas in the works. So, yes, we're listening.

In addition to working on a new season of Killing Eve — which she executive produces — and the upcoming Bond film No Time to Die [5], and writing a new movie of her own [6], Waller-Bridge has also signed a $20 million a year deal with Amazon Prime Video [7], according to Variety, which means we have a TONNE of new shows and content to look forward to. "I'm insanely excited to be continuing my relationship with Amazon," the 34-year-old actress, writer, and producer said. "Working with the team on Fleabag was the creative partnership dreams are made of. It really feels like home. I can't wait to get going!"

Considering that her two-season British dramedy Fleabag [8], which started out as a one-woman show, has won six Emmys [9] since its initial premiere on the BBC in 2016, we can't wait to see what Waller-Bridge's newest projects are all about.
