Prime Video has unveiled the title and extended cast for the Indian edition of the Russo brothers’ espionage action series, “Citadel.” The Indian series, set in the “Citadel” universe, will be titled “Citadel: Honey Bunny.” Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu have been confirmed as the leads, with Prabhu portraying Honey and Dhawan taking on the role of Bunny.

Renowned creator duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, also known as Raj & DK, are leading the production as showrunners and directors. The screenplay is written by Sita R. Menon, in collaboration with Raj & DK. The duo’s previous spy series, “The Family Man,” which starred Prabhu in its second season, has been a massive success for Prime Video.

Described as a fusion of a gritty spy action thriller and a heartwarming love story, “Citadel: Honey Bunny” is set against the vibrant backdrop of the 1990s, adding an extra layer of nostalgia. The series boasts an ensemble cast, including Kay Kay Menon, Simran, Saqib Saleem, Sikandar Kher, Soham Majumdar, Shivankit Parihar, and Kashvi Majmundar.

Produced by Raj & DK’s D2R Films, Amazon MGM Studios, and the Russo brothers’ AGBO, “Citadel: Honey Bunny” is executive produced by Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, Angela Russo-Otstot, Scott Nemes from AGBO, and David Weil. These individuals also oversee all series within the global “Citadel” universe.

The next series in the “Citadel” universe is “Citadel: Diana” from Italy, starring Matilda De Angelis.

Upon its release in April 2023, the first series of “Citadel” became Prime Video’s second most-watched new original series outside of the U.S. and the fourth most-watched worldwide, according to the streaming platform. The anticipation for “Citadel: Honey Bunny” is already high, and fans are eagerly awaiting its premiere. Check the poster as under:
