Ray Winstone to Star in Prime Video Action-Comedy Series ‘Danger Money’

Prime Video has cast Ray Winstone as Alan “Razor” Sharp, a former SAS operative haunted by a botched mission, in the new action-comedy series Danger Money, produced by Harry and Jack Williams.

2 min readEditor-approved Apex article

Prime Video has announced that Ray Winstone will star in Danger Money, a new action-comedy series set to premiere on the streaming platform. Deadline reported on June 25, 2026, that Winstone will portray Alan “Razor” Sharp, described as a former SAS operative carrying the consequences of a mission gone wrong in the 1990s.

The series is being developed by Harry and Jack Williams, the creators behind Prime Video’s The Gentlemen, which Deadline noted as Winstone’s prior franchise role. This casting marks what Deadline characterized as Winstone’s first Amazon role.

In Danger Money, the character backstory centers on a botched operation that continues to “haunt” Razor Sharp. Deadline’s description links the mission in the 1990s to the premise of the series, positioning the character’s past as a driver for the show’s action and comedic elements.

Deadline also framed the project as an action-comedy, suggesting a blend of violence, tension, and humor built around Razor’s experience and lingering aftermath from the failed mission. The report did not provide additional plot specifics, episode count, or production schedule beyond the casting announcement.

The casting adds to Prime Video’s slate of genre-focused original programming, and it places a veteran British actor in a streaming series role tied to the Williams brothers’ production track record. Winstone is known for feature film and television work, but Deadline’s update focused on the new Amazon platform assignment and the specific character he will play.

Prime Video and the series production team have not been detailed further in the Deadline report regarding where and when filming will take place, or any release window beyond the announcement date. The next public steps for viewers are expected to include additional cast additions and official release information as production moves forward.

For audiences, the announcement indicates a continued emphasis on high-profile casting for premium streaming drama and comedy hybrids. It also underscores Prime Video’s ongoing effort to attract established performers by pairing them with recognizable creative teams tied to prior Amazon success.

Why It Matters

  • The casting brings a long-established performer to Prime Video, expanding the platform’s roster of original genre titles.
  • Because the character is defined by a 1990s botched SAS mission, the series is likely to lean on action set pieces and character-driven consequences grounded in that history.
  • The announcement is also part of the Williams brothers’ broader television footprint, reinforcing Prime Video’s investment in creators with prior audience recognition.
  • As of the announcement, Prime Video has not provided a confirmed release window in the coverage, so additional casting, production updates, and scheduling details will be the next key items for viewers and industry watchers.
