The official description of the series reads, “Eight years ago, Citadel, an independent global spy agency, was destroyed by a new syndicate, Manticore. With their memories wiped, elite agents Mason Kane (Richard Madden) and Nadia Sinh (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) barely escaped with their lives. Eight years later, Mason’s former colleague, Bernard Orlick (Stanley Tucci), asks for his help to prevent Manticore from establishing a new world order.”
In a press interview, Priyanka Chopra stated that the budget was ‘beyond her paygrade’ and that she did not have her concentration on it. “I don’t think it is important that when you go and do your job to think about stuff like budgeting. think it is coming on a great platform, which is Prime, and it is a great show, but the numbers and dollars, I can’t just think about that. There is no point, not for us. Above my pay grade,” the actor added.
Citadel, a spy thriller series, is highly awaited by fans. The Amazon Prime series, starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden, has become the second most costly series ever produced. The series is said to have a budget of around $300 million.
