Matilda De Angelis, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, and Raj & DK on Citadel’s Diana and Honey Bunny

In a groundbreaking move to expand the Citadel universe globally, two new series, Citadel: Diana and Citadel: Honey Bunny, take espionage fans from the tech-driven streets of Milan to a retro India filled with unexpected twists. Kyle Meredith sits down with the cast and creatives behind each international adaptation to explore how these stories reinvent the spy genre and connect to the original Prime Video series.For Citadel: Diana, Matilda De Angelis brings a layered portrayal of the title spy, a character with a haunted past navigating the treacherous Manticore syndicate. Set in 2030 Milan but flashing back nearly a decade, Diana’s journey becomes a tale of vengeance and self-discovery.On the other side of the world, Citadel: Honey Bunny rewinds the clock to explore the origin story of Nadia’s parents in India. Directed by Raj and DK and starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Honey Bunny crafts a uniquely Indian twist on the Citadel universe. As Prabhu explains, she had fun playing the dual roles of actress and spy, with Raj and DK joking about the extra challenge of making Samantha act like a “bad actress” at times. The team strived to create a distinct look that reflects the story’s setting in the ‘90s, yet with a modern, high-octane spin.For Raj and DK, the magic of Honey Bunny lies in using localized hacks to achieve Hollywood-caliber stunts, including a high-stakes car fight that pushes creative boundaries. Raj describes the experience as “subverting the system,” aiming to give viewers blockbuster thrills while staying rooted in India’s unique cinematic techniques.Listen to the casts and crews of Citadel: Diana and Citadel: Honey Bunny chat about all this and more in the new episode or watch it on YouTube here and here.
