Priyanka Chopra will soon star in Amazon’s Citadel and she’s already gearing up for another collaboration with the streamer. She’s joining John Cena and Idris Elba in Amazon Studio’s action movie Heads of State.
Heads of State hails from Nobody filmmaker Ilya Naishuller, and it’s been described as Air Force One meets Midnight Run. Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec wrote the script, drawing inspiration from the initial draft by Harrison Query.
Plot details are still being kept under wraps, and the production will kick off in May. Safran Company’s Peter Safran and John Rickard are producing, with John Cena, Idris Elba, and Marcus Viscidi serving as executive producers.
This won’t mark Chopra’s first collaboration with Amazon Studios. She’ll soon appear on Prime Video’s sci-fi action thriller series Citadel alongside Richard Madden. It was developed as an international event series, with several international spinoffs in development. The show has already been renewed for Season 2 ahead of its premiere on April 28.
Chopra will also soon star in the rom-com Love Again alongside Sam Heughan and Celine Dion. She’s also the founder of the production company Purple Pebble Pictures, and she has a multimillion-dollar first-look TV deal with Amazon, supporting first-time BIPOC and female filmmakers.
