TRAILER: Matilda De Angelis (The Undoing) stars in Citadel: Diana, an Italian entry into the streamer’s Citadel spy thriller franchise launching on October 10.

Milan, 2030: Eight years ago, the independent global spy agency Citadel was destroyed by the powerful enemy syndicate, Manticore. Since then, Diana Cavalieri (De Angelis), an undercover Citadel agent, is alone, trapped behind enemy lines as a mole in Manticore.

When she finally sees a way out and the chance to disappear forever, the only way to do so is trusting the most unexpected ally, Edo Zani (Lorenzo Cervasio), the heir of Manticore Italy and son of the head of the Italian organization, Ettore Zani (Maurizio Lombardi), who’s vying for leadership against the other European families.

The cast also includes Julia Piaton, Thekla Reuten, Giordana Faggiano, Daniele Paoloni, Bernhard Schütz and Filippo Nigro.

Produced by Cattleya and Amazon MGM Studios, the six-part series is executive produced by the Russo Brothers’ AGBO. It is directed by Arnaldo Catinari and developed by Alessandro Fabbri, who is also the head writer and wrote the series with Ilaria Bernardini, Gianluca Bernardini, Laura Colella and Giordana Mari.

The first season of Citadel, starring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas alongside Stanley Tucci and Lesley Manville, premiered in 2023. Citadel and its subsequent series traverse the globe, evolving the story of spy agency Citadel and its powerful enemy syndicate, Manticore.

The Italian original, Citadel: Diana, is the second series to debut from the world of Citadel and will be followed by India’s series, Citadel: Honey Bunny, starring Varun Dhawan and Samantha on November 7, 2024.

Season two of Citadel is in production, with Joe Russo directing.
