Amazon’s MGM Studios chief Jennifer Salke unexpectedly departed the corporation, leaving her high-stakes project, the Citadel, in a precarious position. This espionage thriller franchise was one of Salke’s riskiest ventures throughout her time with the company. The franchise launched with the 2023 Citadel series featuring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas as its stars.
In a bold move, Salke plans to expand the international spy thriller universe with two new spin-offs: “The Italian Citadel: Diana” and “The Indian Citadel: Honey Bunny.” The second season of the original series is currently in post-production, but the future of these two offshoots remains uncertain.
This way, I’ve tried to make the text more conversational while still maintaining the information provided in the original text.
The debut of Citadel’s first season featuring Diana occurred in September, followed by the release of Citadel: Honey Bunny in December. However, no updates have been shared regarding their renewals as of now. It is rumored that the main series experienced several challenges during production, such as frequent changes in showrunners, numerous edits, and reshoots that surpassed the allocated budget.
The program garnered a decent audience, though it didn’t break any records. In fact, it ranked as Amazon Prime Video’s second most popular new original series outside the U.S., and fourth most watched worldwide within 24 days post-launch.
Additionally, it garnered a decent number of viewers in the United States. With Salke no longer involved, the second season will need to attract significantly more viewers to secure a third one.
Five years passed from when the main series was initially announced in 2018 until its first season debuted. It’s expected that Season 2 might air three years later. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the planned premiere date for Citadel Season 2 has shifted from fall 2025 to potentially spring 2026.
Regarding the spin-offs, they held their ground decently within local audiences, yet failed to achieve global sensations. Between the two, Citadel: Hunny Bunny appears more likely for a second season, although there’s a risk that neither may continue.
