What is Citadel about?

Citadel is an elaborate American spy action thriller series that premiered on Amazon Prime Video. Created by Josh Appelbaum, Bryan Oh, and David Weil, the series features a high-stakes narrative revolving around Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh, two top-tier agents of the global espionage agency Citadel, portrayed by Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas. Having lost their memories, the pair are unwittingly drawn back into the clandestine world they once navigated. As they are enlisted by spymaster Bernard Orlick, vividly brought to life by Stanley Tucci, they confront their complicated history and unresolved romantic tension while piecing together a conspiracy that could endanger the world. The first season, ornamented with an impressive budget that heralds its status as one of the priciest TV productions, consists of six episodes and features a prominent supporting role by Lesley Manville. The show's narrative weaves a complex web of action, intrigue, and drama, with a visually-rich storytelling palette that complements its narrative depth. Alongside its central plot, Citadel lays the groundwork for an expansive universe with planned international spin-offs, promising a diverse exploration of espionage across various cultural landscapes.
