Overview

Citadel is an American spy action television series created by Josh Appelbaum, Bryan Oh, and David Weil for Amazon Prime Video. The series features executive producers Joe and Anthony Russo. The cast includes Richard Madden, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Stanley Tucci, and Ashleigh Cummings. The narrative follows the global spy agency Citadel, which has fallen. The story centers on two top agents, Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh, who had their minds wiped years ago. Because they do not remember their pasts as spies, they are unaware of their former identities. When sinister forces emerge from the past, the agents are called back to action. With the assistance of spymaster Bernard Orlick, these former lovers must attempt to recover their memories to save the future. The show explores the premise of what happens when a spy does not know they are a spy. This production is distinct from other entities sharing the name, such as the military college in South Carolina, the investment firm, the credit union, or the securities company.
