Joe Russo compares Priyanka Chopra’s performance in Citadel to THESE MCU stars

Created by the famous Russo Brothers, Citadel is one of the most-awaited streaming shows of 2023. The high-profile spy thriller stars Priyanka Chopra and Richard Madden in lead roles. It will see PeeCee in a never-seen-before avatar as she has done most of her action sequences in the spy thriller series on her own.

Recently, the World premiere of the series was organised in London where the Russo Brothers talked about their journey of Citadel. They also shared what they put Chopra through during the shoot of the series, they did not make Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans go through any of it during the filming of the Marvel movies.


“The physical work she did on the show, for the amount of time she had to do it, it was the toughest we have put any actor through.” He added that Priyanka carries “a lot of physicality of season one,” Joe said.

He continued, “It’s the hardest job we have asked of any actor that we worked with. Even when we were doing those Marvel movies when Robert Downey Jr puts on that helmet, he is out and CGI takes over. Chris Evans when puts on the cap, some man takes over, but there was no rest for her.”

The first season of the global series consists of six episodes, with two episodes premiering on April 28 on Prime Video, and one episode rolling out weekly through May 26.

Brian Wilson: 6 genres that prove he was more than just a 'Beach Boy'

Brian Wilson, who died this week aged 82, is best remembered as the sonic architect of the Beach Boys and the laid-back "California sound" that swept the world in the 1960s.

Arjun Rampal says Rauf in 'Rana Naidu' is the most ruthless role of his career

Arjun Rampal has stepped into a deeply unsettling place with his portrayal of Rauf in Netflix’s Rana Naidu season 2. The actor, known for playing intense characters, says this role was unlike anything he’s done before.

“He’s the most terrifyingly real character I’ve ever played,” Rampal said. Rauf is unpredictable, violent, and entirely devoid of empathy, yet not completely soulless. What sets him apart is a surprising emotional sliver: the fierce love he holds for his niece. “She’s the only one he protects without question,” he explained. “It’s the only time you see something human in him.”
