NEW BOND
Amazon MGM Studios has agreed to a deal with the Broccoli family behind James Bond to take over the creative rights of the movies. ... Mike Hopkins, head of Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios, told Bloomberg last year that while the business was careful with intellectual property, it also wanted to be creative producing new content with older brands. “So if you're gonna do things, we think you have to do it with a different angle, a different take,” he said.

THE DOGEFATHER PART II
Who will help lead the Department of Government Efficiency now that Elon Musk has left the scene? News reports have mentioned Joe Gebbia, a Tesla board member and a co-founder of Airbnb, as a possible replacement. Gebbia is forty-three. Like Musk—his close friend—he is a billionaire, a resident of Austin, Texas, and the rumored recipient of a hair transplant. Gebbia formally announced his political conversion on X in January, posting that, after years of supporting Democrats, he finally “did [his] own research” and concluded that Donald Trump “deeply cares about our nation.” His feed has a MAHA flavor: Big Food exposés (“The truth about Ketchup”) alternate with digs at liberals suffering from “TDS,” or Trump Derangement Syndrome.

THE TALK OF THE TOWN
History doesn’t repeat itself, but it rhymes.” Whether or not Mark Twain ever really said that line, it fits and resonates loudly as President Trump shuttles between the Oval Office and the Situation Room, weighing if he should dispatch bombers on yet another American sortie to the Middle East.

A candidate meets voters wherever they can. The other day, Justin Brannan, a burly Democratic city councilman from Bay Ridge who's running to be the Party's nominee for city comptroller, surprised one constituent by opening a papered-over door at a vacant retail space in Tribeca.

On the morning of the New York premiére of the new sci-fi movie “The Life of Chuck,” in which Mark Hamill plays a grizzled, alcoholic, math-loving accountant, the actor visited MoMath, the National Museum of Mathematics, near Madison Square Park. Hamill has accurately described his look in the film—white hair, walrus mustache, sweater vest—as “Geppetto.”
