"Da Vinci's Demons" on Starz is an adventure series written by David S. Goyer, co-writer of blockbuster and critically-acclaimed films "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight" and writer of the highly anticipated "Man of Steel."
The series is a historical fantasy, following the "untold" story of the world's greatest genius during his raucous youth in Renaissance Florence. Brash and brilliant, the 25-year-old 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.
Starz is expected to air the worldwide broadcast premiere of "Da Vinci's Demons" in 2013. BBC Worldwide Productions is producing the series and will distribute it internationally. David S. Goyer is showrunner. Julie Gardner will serve as executive producer, along with BBC Worldwide Productions' head Jane Tranter.
