After a busy week at the United Nations General Assembly, actor, producer and philanthropist Priyanka Chopra Jonas, along with director Anthony Russo, spoke passionately about her upcoming sci-fi espionage series, Citadel at a panel discussion at the recently-concluded Fast Company Innovation Festival held in in New York City.
Dressed in a royal blue Yuzefi pant suit, the global icon explained what really drew her to this global action franchise that demanded months of her time and that led her to learn and speak six languages. “You don’t have to watch the American show to understand; [the local language series] stands alone,” she said. “But if you watch all the other shows, they’re all connected—and that’s never been done in television. To be able to offer a show which cross-pollinates audiences and languages is just so exciting to me. So it was innovative, and that’s what I loved about it,” said the actor who is already looking forward to the local spinoffs that will be made for India, Italy, Spain and Mexico markets.
