They have an executive producer credit on the TV show I think, no involvement beyond that. Or something like that.
Since Amazon appear to be gearing up for promo it definitely seems like another attempt at riding coattails.
Those guys are such a joke. They're lucky they have an EP credit. But they seem to be nothing but opportunists. Hopefully, fandom sentiment will make any of their treatments toxic. Amazon being what it is- as big as it is- a WOT spin off (not in harmony with harriet or rjs wishes) and the complete lack of source material- and having none written by any of team WOT- I would hope they'd view it as a dilution of their property. WOT is not public domain like little mermaid or cinderella.
Sadly, one way or another, those morons will make money off it all, whatever happens.
