‘Citadel’ Spies Seek Vengeance as Memories Return in Action-Packed Trailer (VIDEO)

Eight years ago, Citadel fell. Now, the independent global spy agency’s top agents, the once lovers Mason Kane (Richard Madden) and Nadia Sinh (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), are remembering everything that was taken from them.

Prime Video’s newest Citadel trailer (above) is as action-packed as it can be, showing Madden, Chopra Jonas, Stanley Tucci, and the rest of Citadel fighting to restore what was and protect the world from Manticore, a powerful syndicate manipulating the world from the shadows.

As Prime Video teases, Mason and Nadia remained oblivious to their past selves throughout the eight years since Citadel fell, building new lives under new identities. But one night, Mason is “tracked down by his former Citadel colleague, Bernard Orlick (Stanley Tucci), who desperately needs his help to prevent Manticore from establishing a new world order.”

“Mason seeks out his former partner, Nadia, and the two spies embark on a mission that takes them around the world in an effort to stop Manticore,” the synopsis continues, “all while contending with a relationship built on secrets, lies, and a dangerous-yet-undying love.”
