About the world of Citadel
The first season of Citadel, starring Stanley Tucci and Lesley Manville, with Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra, was released in 2023.

The Italian original, Citadel: Diana, is the second series to begin from the world of Citadel (launching October 10) and will be followed by the Indian series, Citadel: Honey Bunny on November 7. The second season of Citadel, starring Richard and Priyanka, will begin this year, with Joe Russo as director.
