Apparently, Citadel is the big production of the Amazon platform and because of that, it is full of great actors. After his recent flop with The Gray Man on Netflix, the russo brothers are back on the attack and they hope to revolutionize the genre with this expensive television drama. That being said, many viewers are eagerly awaiting its first, which will arrive very soon:

Synopsis of the Citadel

As I already mentioned above, Citadel is an ambitious spy series that tells a story on a grand scale.. Its plot focuses on the Citadel spy organization, specifically the events that occur 8 years after its fall. In the midst of chaos Manticore, a powerful syndicate that manipulates the world from the shadows take the power. Now two of the elite agents who survived the destruction of the Citadel must face the new world order.

The Citadel action is fast and reminiscent of Mission Impossible.

The citadel is a long shot

Last year, we already saw Prime Video go all-in during the production of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The adaptation of Tolkien’s works was very expensive and was destined to become one of the highlights of the year for the platform. Despite its cost and ambition, the reception was much worse than expected and many viewers rated it as mediocre.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
Rings of Power wasn’t a complete flop, but it fell short of expectations.

NOW, Prime Video puts all the meat back on the grill with another production that should work, but there’s always the possibility of something going wrong. If so, I think that Amazon should rethink where it spends its money, since, with the Wheel of Time, it would already be three very expensive series that do not reach their goal. It’s something similar to what happened with Amazon Games, which suffered several “failures” similar, like New World or Crucible.
