As executive producers Joseph Russo and Anthony Russo joined the cast for promotions of their global spy series Citadel ahead of its global premiere in London, the Russo brothers couldn’t stop marvelling over Priyanka Chopra Jonas’s preparation and training for action sequences in the Prime Video Series. Unlike most spy thrillers, Chopra Jonas’s character Nadia Singh has an equal playing field with actor Richard Madden’s character Mason Kane and has done 80 per cent of the high-octane action sequences all by herself.
Best known for directing four films for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Joe Russo of the Russo Brothers even confessed to the fact that Chopra Jonas has done more action than Robert Downey Junior and Chris Evans.
He praised Priyanka Chopra Jonas and said that the physical work that she did for the show, for the amount of time for which she had to do it was the toughest they have put any actor through, and he even compared her to Tom Cruise, who is known to do all his action sequences without a body double.
