LOS ANGELES - Priyanka Chopra-Jonas has been cast in an Amazon drama series titled “Citadel” after earlier partnering up with the digital streamer on the Indian pre-wedding “Sangeet” series.
Chopra Jonas will star alongside and Richard Madden in the lead roles of the Russo brothers’ (Marvel directors Antony and Joe Russo) executive-produced drama series. The announcement was made Tuesday at the Television Critics Association winter press tour, reported Variety.

Amazon also announced that a local language production of the franchise will originate from Mexico, in addition to the previously announced versions in Italy and India. Madden and Chopra will star in the U.S. “mothership” edition of the series. The show had originally been announced in July 2018.
Josh Appelbaum, André Nemec, Jeff Pinkner, and Scott Rosenberg of Midnight Radio will serve as writers and executive producers of Citadel.

The Italian series will be co-produced with Amazon Studios and Cattleya, part of ITV Studios, and the Indian series will be developed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K. and produced with Amazon Studios.
It was announced in December that Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas were producing an unscripted sangeet series at Amazon. She is a former Miss World and leading Bollywood star who made her American onscreen debut in the ABC drama series “Quantico” in 2015. She has gone on to star in a number of films since then and is currently developing an untitled Indian wedding comedy with Mindy Kaling and Dan Goor at Universal in which she will star and serve as co-producer.
She is repped by UTA, Trinity Ventures, and Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, P.C., reported Variety
