If ever we needed proof that we need to be best friends with Priyanka Chopra Jonas as soon as humanly possible, then lets just say her choice of a drink on a night out is it.

Im a big fan of a martini, the Citadel actor told us during a recent game of Ask Me Anything. Im just out in like one. I like a very dirty martini with olive juice my husband [Nick Jonas] makes a mean one. But Im also a big cosmopolitan fan cosmo for if I want multiple. Martini if I just want one.

The actor, who recently welcomed her daughter Malti Marie with her husband of three years, recently touched down in London to celebrate the release of her latest Prime Video series, Citadel. The series sees Game of Thrones alum Richard Madden and Chopra Jonas star as top spies, Mason Kane and Nadia Sinh, respectively, who work for a spy agency named Citadel which has had the memory of its agents erased. The pair are forced to fight back against the now powerful Manticore crime syndicate thats growing in influence.

Despite her characters world-class spy credentials, it sounds like a life of espionage isnt exactly for Jonas. Id make a terrible spy I cant lie, she said. I can act, Id probably be over acting because Id be so nervous that Id get caught, then arrested and probably killed. And dying is a no no in a profession, and Id prefer to not die. That would be nice.

Jonas, who is known for roles in the likes of Baywatch and Love Again, spent a year-and-a-half of training for her Citadel role and practising stunt scenes. Ive done about 80-85% of the stunts myself. It required us to stay agile and fit like an athlete, she shared. Workouts, training... we had a whole stunts studio with rigs, weapons and combat training. I was really happy when I wrapped and ate pizza I didnt work out for months. It was awesome.

While her go-to favourite spies are Sean Connery and Daniel Craigs iterations of James Bond, shes clearly a fan of another familiar action film star. I also love Angelina Jolie as a spy, she said. I would tell her all my secrets.'

When shes not acting in front of the camera and leading her Anomaly hair care brand, the actor loves curling up in bed with her husband. My perfect date night just doesnt happen often enough. My perfect date night would be snuggled in bed, watching an amazing movie, eating awesome takeout. But in bed. My husband isnt a fan of that, so we dont do it, she joked.
