Trailer: What’s The Movie About?

The trailer for the upcoming series kicks off with Mason Cane (played by Richard Madden) encountering Nadia Sinh (played by Priyanka Chopra Jones) and questioning her about whether she has ever seen him, if she shares his feelings about being an outsider or if she belongs to a different time or place. In reality, Mason has no recollection of his past life, including how he boarded the train, the recurring explosion, the people he worked with, his friends, family, or his employer; however, he remembers seeing Nadia and knows that she’s a spy just like him. Nadia tries very hard to dismiss his assumption, even not choosing to catch or dodge the sharp knife Mason throws at her to prove that she has some great skills.

Nadia accepts that she remembers Mason from her dream. Both Nadia and Mason were skilled spies belonging to a spy agency called Citadel, a private organization free from any nation’s grasp or control. Unfortunately, Citadel met its end with the betrayal of one of its own. The rogue spy was a Manticore operative, an agent of a crime syndicate operating within the shadows. Many Citadel operatives were gunned down, and those who survived, like Mason and Nadia, had their memories wiped clean before being placed into a world with a fresh identity and a name. Now that the Citadel has fallen, the operatives of Manticore are stepping up to create a new world order to serve their own agendas and open doors for chaos and instability.

To stop the world from falling into the hands of Manticore, Bernard Orlick (played by Stanley Tucci) managed to track down two of his best operatives, Sadia and Mason, to help him in his mission to thwart Manticore’s plan. Bernard was working in the Citadel’s R&D department before it fell and was tasked with creating gadgets for the organization’s spies. Now the duo is forced to remember the past to save the future from Manticore. The members of Manticore are dissident operatives and killers from different security and military organizations throughout the world who have established a shadowy association to carry out their unlawful activities. The Manticore appears to be a powerful adversary throughout the trailer, with skilled agents and cutting-edge weapons. In order to haul the renegade organization to justice, Mason and his squad will need to utilize their own assets and expertise to outmaneuver and conquer them.
