That's a lot of figures.

What's more, the deal reportedly includes an entire Amazon Prime Video channel dedicated to works by Glover, as well as other artists' curated work.

Stephen Glover — Donald's brother, who writes and produces Atlanta alongside him — reportedly also signed an overall deal with Amazon.

But wait, there's more: Malia Obama has reportedly been hired as part of the show's writers room for Hive, a TV series in early development, the plot of which THR describes as "[revolving] around a Beyoncé-like figure."

All this news comes hot off the recent announcement that Glover and Phoebe Waller-Bridge are creating and starring in a TV series reboot of the action comedy Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

For those worrying about the fate of Atlanta, don't fret: THR also reports that the third and fourth seasons of the show start shooting in March, and the Amazon deal has no effect on the show.
