Prime Video’s Citadel, the new spy series that takes viewers on a global adventure, is set to head to California for Season 2. With the first season already ranking as Prime Video’s second most popular series, the Russo Brothers and Amazon have plans to expand the show into a massive interconnected franchise. They have ordered a second season to extend the story beyond the first six episodes, promising audiences even more adventures. According to the Russo Brothers, the plans for the series include moving the secret organization to the West Coast. Steve Weintraub, from Collider, interviewed the brothers at the world premiere of Citadel in London and asked why they wanted to bring the series to California in the next season.
Citadel follows the members of a secret spy organization after it falls into the hands of an enemy operative. Eight years on, Agents Mason Kane (Richard Madden) and Nadia Sinh (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) live separate lives, having lost their memories, only to regain them after their old colleague Bernard Orlick (Stanley Tucci) pays them a visit. The series pits them against seemingly insurmountable odds as they attempt to restore Citadel while bringing down the syndicate which destroyed it. But it’s not just an action-packed series, as it also delves into the characters of Kane and Sinh, as they struggle to balance their past lives with their current ones. Lesley Manville, Osy Ikhile, Ashleigh Cummings, Roland Møller, Caoilinn Springall, and Davik Silje also star in the series.
According to the Russo Brothers, the choice to film in California was not arbitrary, stating that “everything’s story-dependent for us, and it made a lot of sense from a story perspective to shoot this one in California”.
The shift to California will bring benefits for the production team, including the chance to work closer to home. Showrunner and writer David Weil notes that by moving to LA, they’ll get to work with people they admire, and it would be wonderful if they get a second season to film there. Chopra Jonas also expressed her excitement, sharing that it would be a “dream come true” to be able to go to work from home. Filming in California also opens the door for more high-end talent to join the series, with Weil saying that “maybe we’ll inquire about some massive stars and have them come do a day on set”.
Citadel Will Go Far Beyond California With Its Ambitious Premise
Despite heading to California, the Russos have even bigger plans for Citadel. The spy series will serve as the mothership for international spinoffs, featuring Citadel
