The Citadel universe has arrived, and with it, a world of spies, secrets, and high-stakes missions spanning the globe. But here’s the best part: you don’t need to follow any strict viewing order to enjoy the action!

The First Series: Citadel

What’s It About? The original Citadel series is where it all began, introducing us to Mason Kane (Richard Madden) and Nadia Sinh (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) as they tackle global espionage with relentless intensity. If you want the backstory on the mysterious Citadel organization, start here—but no pressure! You’ll get the essential setup, but you’re free to explore any of the spinoffs in whatever order catches your eye.

Why It Works Solo: This series establishes the main storyline but doesn’t spoil the spinoffs. Think of it as the cornerstone, but each spinoff adds its own flair and unique details.
