I simply cannot turn down a spy thriller, and after I finish Netflix's The Union, Prime Video's Citadel: Diana is next on my list! It has everything you love about the spy genre — a leading lady trapped in enemy territory, a fight between good and evil, secret identities — but it also has a beautiful beating heart that's grounded in human connection and care. To put it simply, this series is going to be your new obsession. Here's everything you need to know.
Citadel: Diana Plot
In 2022, Diana Cavalieri (Matilda De Angelis) got stuck in Milan when her spy agency Citadel got taken down by their biggest enemy, Manticore. Fast forward to 2030, and Diana is still stuck in Milan. She jumps at the opportunity to escape and disappear, but becomes more cautious when she realizes she'll have to trust Edo Zani (Lorenzo Cervasio), the son of Manticore's leader and heir to the entire Manticore mantle. His father Ettore Zani (Maurizio Lombardi) is fighting for leadership over the other families in Europe, and Diana is going to have to decide whether she trusts Edo or if she'll continue fighting alone.
The enemies-to-allies of it all reminds me of Killing Eve...but hopefully Citadel: Diana won't end as tragically.
Citadel: Diana Release Date
You can stream Citadel: Diana on Prime Video starting October 10, 2024. The series will have six episodes.

Will Citadel: Diana feature our favorite enemies to lovers trope? Or will it stick to allies and best friends? Honestly I'll be okay with either!
