The story unfolds in Milan in the year 2030, a city scarred by the recent downfall of the global spy agency Citadel. The agency was dismantled by Manticore, a formidable enemy syndicate, leaving its agents scattered and in hiding. Diana Cavalieri, who has been working undercover within Manticore, finds herself isolated and in a precarious position. As she discovers a potential way out, her only hope of escape lies in an unexpected alliance with Edo Zani, played by Lorenzo Cervasio. Zani is the heir to Manticore Italy and is embroiled in a power struggle within the organization, adding further layers of complexity to Diana’s precarious situation.

Directed by Arnaldo Catinari and developed by Alessandro Fabbri—who also serves as the head writer—the series is a product of careful craftsmanship and creative storytelling. Fabbri, along with Ilaria Bernardini, Gianluca Bernardini, Laura Colella, and Giordana Mari, has shaped the narrative to be both thrilling and intricate.

‘Citadel: Diana’ is produced by Amazon MGM Studios in partnership with Cattleya, part of ITV Studios, with Gina Gardini as the showrunner and executive producer. The production is bolstered by the efforts of Riccardo Tozzi, Marco Chimenz, Giovanni Stabilini, and Emanuele Savoini as executive producers. The project also enjoys support from the Italian Ministry of Culture – Directorate General for Cinema and Audiovisual. AGBO’s Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, Angela Russo-Otstot, and Scott Nemes, alongside David Weil of ‘Hunters’, are also on board as executive producers, with Midnight Radio joining in as well.
