Da Vinci’s Demons was one of last summer’s most pleasant surprises. The Starz series, created by David S. Goyer, turned out to be a smart, fast-paced speculation on the least documented years of Leonardo Da Vinci.
Season Two of Da Vinci’s Demons is now in production and we have four new photos from the production. Follow the jump for the remaining three.
STARZ RELEASES FIRST PHOTOS FROM SOPHOMORE SEASON OF DAVID S. GOYER’S HIT ACTION ADVENTURE ORIGINAL SERIES “DA VINCI’S DEMONS”
Today STARZ released the first photos from the anticipated second season of the adventure drama, “Da Vinci’s Demons,” a STARZ Original series from the mind of David S. Goyer (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel), which will return on STARZ in 2014.
Starring Tom Riley (“Monroe,” I Want Candy), as the title character, season two of “Da Vinci’s Demons,” finds Florence thrown into chaos in the wake of the Pazzi conspiracy. Lorenzo is gravely ill and Leonardo da Vinci must push the limits of his mind and body to defend the city against the forces of Rome. While the Medicis go to unthinkable lengths to deal with new threats, da Vinci continues on his quest to find the fabled Book of Leaves and uncover the secret history of his mother. He’ll come to realize that he has lethal competition in his quest — new enemies who may be even worse than the forces of Pope Sixtus. His search will take him to faraway lands and force him to reevaluate everything he knew about the world and his own history.
The series also stars Laura Haddock as Lucrezia Donati, Blake Ritson as Count Riario Girolamo, Elliot Cowan as Lorenzo Medici and Lara Pulver as Clarice Orsini.
STARZ greenlit “Da Vinci’s Demons” for a second season following its record-setting first season weekend debut on STARZ on Friday April 12, 2012. The historical fantasy created by David S. Goyer and produced by Adjacent Productions, follows the ‘untold’ story of the world’s greatest genius, Leonardo da Vinci, during his turbulent youth in Renaissance Florence. Outside of the United States and English-speaking Canada, “Da Vinci’s Demons” is distributed internationally by BBC Worldwide. Fox International Channels (FIC) acquired the first season of the series and premiered it to audiences in 120 countries in Latin America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa following Starz’s exclusive premiere in the U.S.
