Prime Video has released the first look at the highly-anticipated global spy series from Anthony and Joe Russo, "Citadel".

The series will premiere on April 28 with two episodes, followed by a new episode released weekly every Friday through May 26.

The photos for the big-budget series, starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden, feature British actor Lesley Manville who is being revealed as a core series regular alongside previously announced Madden, Chopra Jonas, and Stanley Tucci.

She plays Dahlia Archer, the British Ambassador to the United States, whose loyalties may lie elsewhere. She is highly cunning and ambitious, making her both a valuable asset and a formidable foe.

"Citadel" hails from Amazon Studios and the Russo Brothers’ AGBO. Executive producers are Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, Mike Larocca, Angela Russo-Otstot, and Scott Nemes for AGBO, with David Weil serving as showrunner and executive producer.

Josh Appelbaum, André Nemec, Jeff Pinkner, and Scott Rosenberg serve as executive producers for Midnight Radio after originally having a lead creative role, with Appelbaum and Nemec as showrunners, until a change at the helm was made.

Newton Thomas Sigel and Patrick Moran also serve as executive producers. In addition to the mothership series, headlined by Chopra Jonas and Madden, Citadel also has local language offshoots in India and Italy.

Eight years ago, Citadel fell. The independent global spy agency—tasked to uphold the safety and security of all people—was destroyed by operatives of Manticore, a powerful syndicate manipulating the world from the shadows.

After Citadel’s fall, elite agents Mason Kane (Madden) and Nadia Sinh (Chopra Jonas) had their memories wiped as they narrowly escaped with their lives. They’ve remained hidden ever since, building new lives under new identities, unaware of their pasts. 

However, Mason is tracked down one night by his former Citadel colleague, Bernard Orlick (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 to stop Manticore, all while contending with a relationship built on secrets, lies, and a dangerous-yet-undying love.

Madden stars as Mason Kane, alongside Chopra Jonas as Nadia Sinh, Tucci as Bernard Orlick, Manville as Dahlia Archer, Osy Ikhile as Carter Spence, Ashleigh Cummings as Abby Conroy, Roland Møller as Anders Silje and Davik Silje, Caoilinn Springall as Hendrix Conroy.
