Likely causes

WHY

FIX

Unplug accessories (soundbar/HDMI hubs) briefly too, wait a minute, reconnect power, and open Prime Video.
Update system software first, then Prime Video, then reboot so both layers load fresh.
Sign out everywhere you can for Prime Video, wait a minute, sign in only on this device, then test.
If using VPN/proxy anywhere on the network, turn it off and retry Prime Video immediately.
