Prime Video has added a new feature for its users - the option to customise their profile photos on the streaming platform with faces of characters from Amazon Original productions. There is a whole bunch to pick from and there are some absolute fan favourites to pick from. This new feature of being allowed to pick an Amazon Original character's photo as a profile pic is something we've already seen Netflix do. Netflix has had the option for its users to use photos of characters from its own original productions for a while now. So while this feature isn't exactly new, it's a fun one to have.

Available on pretty much all devices that support Prime Video, users can pick from a wide selection of Amazon Original characters from movies and series like Borat, Bosch, The Boys, Coming 2 America, Fleabag, Good Omens, The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, Invincible, Sylvie's Love, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan, One Night in Miami…, Making the Cut, Hunters, Without Remorse, The Tomorrow War, The Wilds, Upload, Troop Zero, Hanna, The Expanse, and Carnival Row.
