Russo Brothers hailed Priyanka Chopra as the Indian James Bond. It is known that Priyanka Chopra is starring in an action-packed webseries Citadel. The streaming will be streaming from 28 April and with new episodes released weekly every Friday through May 26.
The film's trailers got tremendous responses and speaking to scribes, Russo Brothers who directed the series heaped praises on Priyanka Chopra. Joe Russo said, "It’s an accurate way to talk about it, without question. I mean, we loved Bond growing up." Anthony Russo added, "We’re immense fans of Bond, but our job is to try to take what we love about these sorts of genres and films that have influenced us and figure out ways to push them into spaces and places that surprise us … Our job as storytellers isn’t to bring you another version of Bond. Our job as storytellers is to bring you a fresh experience that you are excited and surprised by. So hopefully we hit that mark. We’ll see."
Speaking about Priyanka Chopra they said, "This is a genre that traditionally has a male lead. And so what was interesting to us was upending that. Priyanka is really gifted physically. She is a badass on camera and she kicks a lot of a** in the show. Without giving too much away, her character is driving a lot of the action for the better part of the series, and Richard’s character is playing catch up. That was a really interesting and exciting idea for us."
Priyanka Chopra is also starring in Love Again with Sam Heughan and Celine Dion directed by James C Strouse.
