Priyanka Chopra to collaborate with Amazon Prime Video soon

"Quantico" star Priyanka Chopra is in talks with Amazon Prime Video for some projects, and an official announcement will be made soon.

The streaming platform on Tuesday shared that a behind the scenes documentary on the Jonas Brothers is underway. And Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke credited Priyanka for it, and teased about upcoming projects.

"I love Priyanka and she introduced me to Nick Jonas. They sent me a video and we bought it right away and that's how we came about it," Salke told IANS in an interview here.

"I love her... So you can look forward to us doing more work with Priyanka," she added.

When prodded further on the projects which are being discussed, Salke said: "We do have few things on our mind but we haven't quite finished up the deals... We will have some announcements coming out soon."

The Jonas Brothers documentary will follow "Sucker", the band's first new music release in nearly six years. The comeback of Nick Jonas, Kevin Jonas and Joe Jonas involves more than just a new single.

The film will look at the brothers as they reunite for their upcoming tour, and promises to give fans an intimate look into the lives of Kevin, Nick and Joe.

The Jonas Brothers broke up their band in 2013 after cancelling their tour due to a "deep, creative rift" among the members. At the time, Nick, who is now married to Priyanka, had told People magazine of the break-up: "It's really hard to say 'forever'".

A premiere date for the documentary will be announced at a later date.

Opening up about the idea behind the project, Salke said: "It is really about our instincts, 'oh my God, our customer are going to love this' and we sort of lean in and figure out the best strategy."

Salke also introduced an edge-of-the seat thriller series with working title "The End", which marks digital debut of Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar.

The multi-season show by Abundantia Entertainment is presently under development and aims to appeal to fans of the action-thriller genre worldwide. Being envisioned at an unprecedented scale and cinematic experience, the show promises to bring in the next level of the action genre.
