2023 is shaping up to be a year of action with films like John Wick: Chapter 4 and Fast X. Netflix‘s own Extraction proved to be a big hit for Chris Hemsworth outside of Marvel films, and though the first ended on somewhat of an open note regarding his character’s survival, the streamer has brought him back and is ready to give audiences the ride of their lives in the newly released posters of the sequel.

Citadel, the long-in-the-works global spy thriller drama from Amazon Studios and the Russo Brothers’ Agbo, is eyeing the biggest debut for a series on the streamer based on original IP.
“Citadel, the #1 title on Prime! In its series debut, this show attracted one of the largest global audiences in the history of Prime Video – such an incredible performance for new and original IP,” Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke wrote on Instagram.
She would not elaborate but, according to a source close to the production, Citadel, starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden, follows only Prime Video’s Lotr: Rings Of Power in launch numbers since its April 28 debut. Rings of Power premiered Sept. 1 with more 25 million viewers in its first day, Amazon said at the time.
According to Citadel‘s show Twitter account, the drama is Prime Video’s number one title in nearly 200 countries and territories. It would not come as a surprise,...

This Citadel review contains no spoilers.
If you’ve never seen a good spy series before, Prime Video has a new offering that might captivate you. It’s called Citadel, and the streamer has spent an unhinged amount of cash on it, with the bill steadily creeping towards $300 million at the time of writing. Make no mistake, it’s a show that got Amazon so hyped, they decided to make it thrice. There’s three seasons of this U.S. one planned, plus three seasons of two international foreign-language versions. It’s Citadels all the way down, baby!
What’s this staggering megaproject even about, you ask? Well, in this English-language version, there was once a unique spy agency called Citadel, reminiscent of the one in the animated Fxx spy series, Archer, but with more healthy global intentions. Its two best agents were a suave man with a strong jawline who favors a tailored suit,...

Citadel doesn’t premiere on Amazon Prime Video until April 28, but the spy thriller starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden is set for a second season, and it’s coming to California.
The series executive produced by the Russo Brothers has been awarded a whopping $25 million in tax credits to relocate from the UK to the Golden State for Season 2, the California Film Commission said Monday. In total, seven TV series — two relocations, five new shows — are in line to receive around $80 million in incentives for this allocation round. See the list below.
In fact, Citadel isn’t the only Amazon series to benefit from California’s generous program this time around, with a list that includes a couple of untitled series as well as HBO’s Wondermill, which appears to be a code name for The Rehearsal, whose first season filmed in Oregon. We are getting a clarification...

Russo discussed Agbo’s upcoming slate at the second-annual Sands International Film Festival of St Andrews.
With the big-budget Amazon franchise Citadel poised to launch on Amazon Prime on April 28, Agbo producer Joe Russo says the model of an English-language ‘mothership’ expanding into local content could have limitless possibilities.
“Because we all consume so much content, and we all basically have a PhD in storytelling, it’s become predictive. I think it’s important to explore new ways to tell stories. It’s also important to create a global community of storytellers, where we can share stories with each other.

The Sands International Film Festival, Scotland’s burgeoning film event, opened its second edition this weekend with the world premiere screening of Citadel, the much-talked-about Prime Video series from Marvel auteurs Anthony and Joe Russo.
Two episodes of varying length, but both well under the hour mark, played as a surprise screening for the packed opening night crowd. The response from the audience, which comprised a mix of industry professionals and students from the University of St. Andrews, a co-organizer of the fest, was jubilant with heavy laughs and gasps for the surprisingly funny yet tricky spy thriller.
The ambitious series is led by Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden, who play members of a secret global spy agency called Citadel. After a deadly attack, the agency is disbanded, and its elite agents are wiped of their memories. With Citadel out the way, a new powerful syndicate, Manticore, is rising in the void.

It's been a while since we've heard about a new bonkers streaming development, especially in a landscape that is more volatile and competitive than ever before. However, The Hollywood Reporter has landed some juicy new tidbits over in the land of Amazon's Prime Video, and dear reader, you might have to sit down for what you're about to find out. The trade has reported that the upcoming series "Citadel," executive produced by Anthony and Joe Russo, ended up costing the streamer a whopping $300 million for only six, 40-minute episodes. That's $1.25 million per minute of screentime, for those keeping score at home.
There are a couple of alleged reasons for this head-spinning budget increase. According to The Hollywood Reporter's sources, it ties back to the Russos' decision to fire the original showrunner of "Citadel," Josh Appelbaum. While the exact details of the firing are unclear, the decision was allegedly made due to costly creative differences.

Action is back, baby! While John Wick: Chapter 4 is blasting through the box office with a Dragon’s Breath shotgun, Chris Hemsworth also returns with his own fight and stunt spectacular with the Netflix sequel, Extraction 2. In the original, we are introduced to Tyler Rake, a mercenary who had taken on the assignment of seeking and rescuing the kidnapped son of a prisoned, international crime lord. The first Extraction featured some of the more amazing action sequences of the past few years, including an extended one-shot sequence that took place in and around an apartment building and on the streets of Bangladesh.
The synopsis reads,
Chris Hemsworth returns as Tyler Rake in Extraction 2, the sequel to Netflix’s blockbuster action film Extraction. After barely surviving the events of the first movie, Rake is back as the Australian black ops mercenary, tasked with another deadly mission: rescuing the...

Netflix has debuted the teaser trailer for the upcoming sequel ‘Extraction 2’ which sees Chris Hemsworth return as Tyler Rake in the sequel to Netflix’s blockbuster action film.

Hemsworth reunites with director Sam Hargrave, with Joe and Anthony Russo’s Agbo producing and Joe Russo writing. Golshifteh Farahani reprises her role from the first film, with Adam Bessa, Olga Kurylenko, Daniel Bernhardt and Tinatin Dalakishvili also co-starring.
This is a sequel to the first film that was based on the graphic novel ‘Ciudad’ by Ande Parks, from a story by Ande Parks, Joe Russo & Anthony Russo, with illustrations by Fernando León González.

Chris Hemsworth’s Tyler Rake is very much alive in the first trailer for “Extraction 2,” the sequel to the hit 2020 Netflix actioner that ended with Hemsworth’s mercenary left for dead.
Sam Hargrave returns to direct “Extraction 2,” which finds Rake tasked with another deadly mission: rescuing the battered family of a ruthless Georgian gangster from the prison where they are being held. Indeed, the sequel trades the sweaty Bangladesh landscape of the first film for snowy Georgia.
The teaser offers up a bit on how Rake survived the end of “Extraction,” but the bulk of the footage is a long shot in which Rake fights his way through a barrage of baddies.
When released in 2020, “Extraction” quickly became one of the most-watched Netflix original films ever, and the streamer quickly greenlit a sequel.
Joe and Anthony Russo’s Agbo produces “Extraction 2” and Joe Russo wrote the script.

With the premiere four weeks away, Prime Video has unveiled a new trailer for the second most expensive TV series of all time: "Citadel." Developed by the duo that gave us "Avengers: Endgame" and "Avengers: Infinity War" among other major Marvel Cinematic Universe hits -- Joe and Anthony Russo -- "Citadel" is set to kick off a new spy universe that will expand to include multiple untitled spin-off series set in India, Italy, and Mexico.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden are in the lead for the primary American iteration, which takes place eight years on from the fall of the titular independent global spy agency. Former Citadel agents and partners Mason Kane (Madden) and Nadia Sinh (Chopra Jonas) -- who had their memories wiped in the aftermath of the calamity -- are reunited on a mission to thwart Manticore, the very shadowy syndicate that brought about Citadel's end...
