This show has drawn an outsize number of new international customers to Prime Video. Its massive worldwide debut audience is a testament to Joe and Anthony Russo’s remarkable vision, the incredible talents of Richard Madden, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Lesley Manville and Stanley Tucci, and the tireless work of the creative teams, cast, and crew," Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon and MGM Studios said.
"Given the overwhelming number of our customers who have embraced this show, we are not only thrilled to share the premiere episode of Citadel globally without membership, but also confirm that the series will return for a second season," she added.
The Amazon Prime Video series 'Citadel' revolves around a spy organization that is on the verge of vanishing unless its top-tier agents restore the command.

The Indian edition, directed by Raj and DK, will be headlined by Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Varun Dhawan.
