Samantha Ruth Prabhu–Varun Dhawan’s Citadel: Honey Bunny Cancelled by Amazon; Priyanka Chopra’s Citadel to Return in 2026
🗓️ April 17, 2025 | In a major development for fans of the Citadel universe, Amazon MGM Studios has officially cancelled its Indian spin-off Citadel: Honey Bunny starring Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Varun Dhawan, as well as the Italian version Citadel: Diana with Matilda De Angelis. The decision comes even as the second season of the flagship series starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Richard Madden is confirmed for a 2026 release.
According to Vernon Sanders, Head of Television at Amazon MGM Studios, the stories from the Indian and Italian adaptations will now be integrated into the second season of Citadel, which recently wrapped filming. Both Honey Bunny and Diana will not continue as standalone series.

“They will not continue as individual series,” Sanders stated, but added, “Season 2 will be the most exhilarating yet.“
The spin-offs were expected to elevate Citadel into a global IP akin to James Bond, but Amazon’s acquisition of the actual Bond franchise has likely changed strategic priorities.
