It is clear that from Amazon Prime Video they do not want to release their multi-million dollar franchises and have already renewed for a season 2 which, for the moment, is the second most expensive series in history (more than two hundred million dollars carry). Thus, we will have new episodes of ‘Citadel’, the espionage thriller with Priyanka Chopra and Richard Madden.
The renovation is coming soon more than a month for the premiere of the serieswhich will arrive on April 28, 2023 with the cover letter of having the brothers Joe and Anthony Russo behind it and, in addition, involving the launch of an entire franchise with at least two spin-offs underway and filming ( one Italian and one Indian).
A renovation that surprises by the background
Taking into account that to get to where we are there has been a lot of nightmare in the production of the series, it has enough merit the one that the platform has launched for this early renewal.
Let’s remember that this first season suffered the departure of its showrunner Josh Appelbaum and his director Brian Kirk the last summer. The arrival of david weil as a replacement ended up in about $75 million in reshoots on top of an already hefty budget ($160 million). One of the consequences is that it has been lowered from seven to six episodes.
Obviously there are no more details about this season 2. ‘Citadel’ tells the story of two elite agents of an agency of global espionage that fell eight years ago. Their identities have been erased and they lead a normal life until they are found by a former colleague, who wants to prevent the rival agency Manticore from establishing a new world order.
The cast of ‘Citadel’ is made up of Richard Madden as Mason Kane, Priyanka Chopra Jonas as Nadia Sinh, stanley tucci like Bernard Orlick, lesley manville as Dahlia Archer Osy Ikhile like Carter Spence ashley cummings like Abby Conroy, Roland Moller like Anders Silje and Davik Silje and Caoilinn Springall like Hendrix Conroy, among others.
