With the release of the first teaser on March 6, Amazon Prime Video has finally opened the curtain on “Citadel,” the outrageously ambitious new spy series starring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas. The series is intended to act as the mothership for a number of upcoming spin-offs that will be situated in different countries and presented in regional tongues. It’s a sizable and pricey wager on an innovative idea that had been shrouded in secrecy until this month. ‘Citadel’ reportedly has a $185 million budget, according to some publications. A new episode will stream every Friday through May 26 after the first two episodes are released on April 28. Several language spin-offs of Citadel will come after the English edition. Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu will appear in the Indian remake. Versions that are set in Mexico, Spain, and Italy are also in the production stage.

Nadia (Priyanka) and Mason (Richard) ride a train at the beginning of the trailer. In crimson, she exudes all the charm of a femme fatale. Nevertheless, all quickly changes as an explosion occurs in the trains. Afterward, we catch a glimpse of Nadia and Mason dining. He makes an attempt to make her remember her previous life as a spy and even tosses a knife at her in the hopes that her old reflexes will work but to no avail. She is aware of having seen him in a dream. Nadia and Mason will, however, get closer, share secrets and beds, undertake missions, take on some bad guys, and make some leaps of faith throughout the course of the seasonAs a significant portion of the action takes place on trains, it seems sensible that the trailer’s debut was postponed from last week following the tragic train crash in Greece that took 38 lives.
