What to expect from Citadel: Diana season 1

In a nutshell, Citadel: Diana follows the story of Diana Cavalieri, a double agent who works for the spy agency known as Citadel. Introduced as part of the original series, Diana will be seen infiltrating the Manticore spy agency, which is the rival of Citadel.

Manticore was guilty of destroying the Citadel agency eight years before the events of the current series, and Diana was left without support as a double agent. Set in 2030 Milan, the show is set to take viewers across a deceitful journey filled with action and high stakes.

The original series also featured both the spy agencies that are set to be at the forefront in the latest spinoff. Citadel was created by Josh Appelbaum and had the Russo Brothers as executive producers.

It featured major stars such as Richard Madden, previously seen in Game of Thrones, and Indian actress Priyanka Chopra, who took on the role of Nadia Sinh. The series was made with a staggering budget of $300 million and premiered back in April 2023. As fans await season 2 of the series, they have its first spinoff to watch for the time being.

Citadel: Diana has been developed by Alessandro Fabbri, with Gina Gardini as the showrunner. The former, in particular, is known for his work on movies such as Blessed Madness, giving viewers another reason to catch the latest show.
