Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas lead the cast, but who else stars in the series?
Citadel has arrived on Prime Video, with the new Russo Brothers series promising to be the kind of nail-biting spy thriller we’ve been waiting for.
The new series follows an independent global spy agency – tasked with upholding the safety and security of all people – who were destroyed by operatives of Manticore, a powerful syndicate manipulating the world from the shadows. We follow the agents who have had their memories wiped as they fight back against Manticore.
With the likes of Richard Madden, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Stanley Tucci and Lesley Manville starring in the series, it’s safe to say that it’s a star-studded one.
Read on for everything you need to know about the cast and characters in Prime Video’s Citadel.
