Mason and Nadia don’t remember anything about their stay at the Citadel and live a completely different life, until one day their old colleague Bernard recruits them again.

The Citadel was originally developed as an entire franchise rather than a standalone series. It is executive produced by the Russo brothers, who have worked on several parts of The Avengers, the series Community and Arrested Development . In the future, the brothers will release several Citadel spin-offs that will be filmed in different countries in local languages. The total budget of the project is about $200 million.
