Confession: I’m a big fan of Starz’s Da Vinci’s Demons. Created by David S. Goyer (the Dark Knight trilogy), Da Vinci’s Demons dishes up a Leonardo da Vinci like we’ve never seen before in films or on TV. Tom Riley stars in the critically acclaimed series, delivering a sexier version of Leonardo than previously served up.
The show, which also features Laura Haddock, Blake Ritson, Elliot Cowan, and Lara Pulver, returns in 2014 and in support of the upcoming season two, Starz has just released four photos featuring Tom Riley and the cast.
The Plot:
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.
