Close-up of Matilda De Angelis as Diana juxtaposed with Diana pointing a gun in Citadel Diana
Citadel: Diana showrunner Gina Gardini explains how the upcoming spinoff fits into the Prime Video espionage franchise. Created by Alessandro Fabbri and serving as an Italy-set spinoff to Citadel, Citadel: Diana stars Matilda De Angelis as the titular Citadel agent, who is working undercover to infiltrate and take down the evil Manticore syndicate.
I can't speak to sort of the larger plan, but the initial plan was to create a group of shows that were truly standalone series, and the only thing that was tying them together was the fact that there was this world of Citadel and these two rival agencies. Beyond that the sky was the limit. What Gardini's Diana Update Means For The Citadel Franchise How It Could Avoid An MCU Problem The original Citadel show was not particularly well-received critically and currently sports a 51% on Rotten Tomatoes. The show was also wildly expensive due to reshoots and various behind-the-scenes issues, sporting a reported budget of about $300 million.
It's not clear whether Diana or Honey Bunny will be able to capture audiences where the mothership series didn't, but Gardini's comment about the MCU is notable. In recent years, one major complaint levied at the MCU is that the interconnecting web or movies and TV shows became too much for casual viewers to keep up with, and if one didn't watch a particular project, what happens in another could prove confusing.
