Prime Video has announced that its action-spy thriller series, Citadel, will premiere exclusively on the streaming platform on April 28th with two episodes, followed by a new episode released weekly every Friday through to May 26th. A teaser trailer can be viewed here.

The series tells the story of how Citadel fell. The independent global spy agency – tasked to uphold the safety and security of all people – was destroyed eight years ago by operatives of Manticore, a powerful syndicate manipulating the world from the shadows. With Citadel’s fall, elite agents Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh had their memories wiped as they narrowly escaped. They’ve remained hidden ever since, building new lives under new identities, unaware of their pasts. Until one night, when Mason is tracked down by his former Citadel colleague, Bernard Orlick, who desperately needs his help to prevent Manticore from establishing a new world order. Mason seeks out his former partner, Nadia, and the two spies embark on a mission that takes them around the world in an effort to stop Manticore, all while contending with a relationship built on secrets, lies, and a dangerous-yet-undying love.
Madden stars as Mason Kane, alongside Chopra Jonas as Nadia Sinh, Tucci as Bernard Orlick, Manville as Dahlia Archer, Osy Ikhile as Carter Spence, Ashleigh Cummings as Abby Conroy, Roland Møller as Anders Silje and Davik Silje, and Caoilinn Springall as Hendrix Conroy.Citadel is executive produced by Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, Mike Larocca, Angela Russo-Otstot, and Scott Nemes for AGBO, with David Weil serving as showrunner and executive producer.
