About Citadel: Honey Bunny
Citadel: Honey Bunny is the prequel to events shown in Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra’s 2023 show Citadel and Matilda De Angelis’ 2024 show Citadel: Diana. The series will follow Varun and Samantha’s Bunny and Honey as they navigate their personal lives even as their professional lives as spies make it harder.
Talking to ANI after the premiere, Varun said, “Samantha and I have worked very hard. The action is genuinely one step ahead from what you guys have seen so far. Hopefully, you will find this on global standards. For the first time, Russo Brothers are making a show in India. Raj and DK have made it. I think it’s action like you’ve never seen it before. You will see never-seen-before avatars of me and Samantha.”
