Amazon Studios has released the first trailer for its spy series Citadel, starring Game of Thrones and Marvel actors Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas. The trailer sets out the show’s massive scope and high-stakes storyline.
Madden and Chopra Jonas play agents of the Citadel, a spy agency that does not pledge allegiance to any nation. Eight years before the series begins, they are betrayed by another Citadel agent of his, and that’s where the drama begins. Watch the trailer below to see Madden and Chopra Yons in action.
In September, it was reported that the production of Citadel was in serious trouble, with about half of the creative team dropping out of the project due to differences in vision from what the Russo Brothers had in mind.
It is also reported that Citadel is the second highest-grossing TV series of all time, trailing another series on Amazon, The Lord of the Rings: Ring of Power. Reported creative differences led Amazon to pay an additional $75 million for reshoots and other programs, bringing Season 1’s budget to $250 million.
The Citadel will premiere on April 28th.
In other news from Amazon Studios, Creed III hits theaters this weekend, marking the best start to a sports movie in US history. Meanwhile, Amazon’s The Rings of Power is currently in the process of filming season two.
