In an interview with Collider, while promoting her new film The Matrix Resurrections, Priyanka Chopra opened up about her upcoming spy series Citadel. The actor said, "There is nothing like Citadel on television, I think. It’s extremely high scale, extremely finessed action, stunts, but at the same time it’s a drama and it has heart. So, I think there is really nothing like that on TV right now and that is one of the big reasons I really wanted to do it. Doing something for multiple episodes…you know it’s a commitment."

Chopra added that shooting for the series took a toll on her physical health and said, "But because this was a limited series it was really great. We shot it for over a year. It was really physically very, very intense for my character and I’m sure a bunch of the cast as well. It was a lot of work, but I am so excited to share it with the world because I just saw a bunch of it recently and I think it’s very special. We’ve worked really hard on it, and you’ll see that."

Citadel will also be made in several other countries like Italy, India, Spain and Mexico. The Indian series starring Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu in the lead roles and will be directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK and produced by Amazon Studios.
