Citadel
Story
So what's
"Citadel" all about, you ask? Well, the series title refers to a
global spy agency, one that works independently of any nation. Their job? Keep
the entire world safe. Unfortunately, a SPECTRE-like organization called
Manticore brings Citadel crumbling down, and as the plot synopsis lets us know,
"With Citadel's fall, elite agents Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh had their
memories wiped as they narrowly escaped with their lives. They've remained
hidden ever since, building new lives under new identities, unaware of their
pasts."
That all changes when
Citadel member Bernard Orlick shows up. As it turns out, Manticore has some big
world-dominating plans, and Bernard needs Mason and Nadia to jog their memories
and get back in the field. As a result, according to the official plot
synopsis, "The two spies embark on a mission that takes them around the
world in an effort to stop Manticore, all while contending with a relationship
built on secrets, lies, and a dangerous-yet-undying love."
We also should expect the
series to play with a fractured timeline. "The show is completely
non-linear," actress Priyanka Chopra Jones said to Variety. "We had
to remind each other of the story. It was like a big jigsaw to remember."
They'll also have to jump back and forth between their two personas — both
before and after their memories are wiped.For an action-packed,
international, sexy spy thriller, you need leads who can live up to all that
hype, and "Citadel" is definitely going to deliver when it comes to
star power. Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jones are starring as agents
Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh, the two mind-wiped spies who will find themselves fighting
for their lives and the world.
Madden rose to fame as the
lovestruck Robb Stark on "Game of Thrones," as well as projects like
"Bodyguard," "Cinderella," and "Eternals." Chopra
Jones, of course, is a former Miss World winner who became one of India's
biggest stars before finding Hollywood success with the likes of ABC's
"Quantico" and "The Matrix Resurrections."
