The Saudi-born Australian actress Ashleigh Cummings spoke to WWD about Citadel's global future and how she learned she got the role.
“I actually heard about it while I was at a doctor’s appointment. I received a call from my agents saying that I had an offer for this show called ‘Citadel,’ which I’d heard about because I’d met the Russos for a different project and we couldn’t work it out scheduling-wise, so I knew that they were making this show. But it had been a year or so since I’d seen them, and I didn’t know anything about the premise of the show. No one did.
We didn’t have access to a lot of film or television or anything at that time, but I ended up growing up on the floorboards of an illegal underground theater group, in a troupe called Cabaret Kids,” she says. “For context, this was at a very specific moment in the country’s history when the muttawas, or religious police, exercised full legal reign. They no longer hold that position in the country; it’s taken great strides in both gender and artistic liberation.
