New Video: ‘Da Vinci’s Demons’ Behind-the-Scenes Featurette

Starz is showing off a new featurette from Da Vinci’s Demons, the upcoming series debuting on Friday, April 12, 2013 at 10pm. Creator/executive producer David S. Goyer and the cast talk about the dramatic thriller that Goyer shows Da Vinci as “one-third Indiana Jones, one-third Sherlock Holmes, and one-third Tony Stark.”

The Plot:

Tom Riley brings Leonard da Vinci to life in Da Vinci’s Demons, a historical fantasy following the ‘untold’ story of the world’s greatest genius during his turbulent youth in Renaissance Florence. Brilliant and passionate, the twenty-five-year-old Leonardo da Vinci is an artist, inventor, swordsman, lover, dreamer and idealist.

As a free thinker, with intellect and talents that are almost superhuman, he struggles to live within the confines of his own reality and time. He begins to not only see the future, but invent it.
