The name's Unearthed, Icons Unearthed. That’s right, Vice TV’s documentary series Icons Unearthed has eyed the James Bond franchise as its next official target. The fifth season of the series that peels back the curtain on some of the world’s most popular film and television franchises will focus on cinema’s most legendary spy.

There’s seemingly no better time to turn one’s documentarian gaze on the James Bond franchise—given it is in the midst of a historical moment. The world’s most famous spy celebrated 60 years on the big screen in 2022 and the most recent and 25th installment in the franchise, No Time To Die (2021), saw Daniel Craig end his tenure as the titular character in stunning fashion. So as the world awaits the announcement of the next 007, Vice TV’s Icons Unearthed will be looking back on the franchise’s illustrious 60-year-plus history, compiling interviews with those who know the franchise best.

The documentary series is produced by The Nacelle Company, who not only have the task of creating a compelling look back on James Bond in all its glory but also six full seasons of Icons Unearthed – thanks to Vice TV handing it a mega-sized renewal.

Talking about the renewal, Nacelle’s CEO Brian Volk-Weiss said: “We’ve had the opportunity to tell some incredible stories in Icons Unearthed, and to have six more seasons of storytelling coming up is a testament to how well the show has been received, I hope we don’t disappoint.”
