da vinci's demons - upcoming new series

1x01 -- apr 12, 2013 -- the hanged man
1x02 -- apr 19, 2013 -- the serpent

in a world where thought and faith are controlled, one man fights to set knowledge free. the secret history of leonardo da vinci's tantalizing life reveals a portrait of a young man tortured by a gift of superhuman genius. he is a heretic intent on exposing the lies of religion. an insurgent seeking to subvert an elitist society. a bastard son who yearns for legitimacy with his father.

he finds himself in the midst of a storm that has been brewing for centuries. a conflict between truth and lies, religion and reason, past and future. his aspirations are used against him by the opposing forces of the time - luring him into a game of seduction where those who despise his intellect need him most. leonardo must take up the fight against foes who use history to suppress the truth. a hero armed only with genius, da vinci stands alone against the darkness within, and the darkness without.

facing an uncertain future, his quest for knowledge nearly becomes his undoing as he explores the fringes of his own sanity. da vinci throws himself into his genius and emerges as an unstoppable force that lifts an entire era out of darkness and propels it into light. his story becomes a mirror into our own world, calling us all to join his fight to free the future.

cable television has really gotten into the renaissance over the past few years. "da vinci's demons" follows in the footsteps of "the tudors" and "the borgias" by depicting this period of history as laced by high adventure, heightened characters and lots and lots and lots of sex.

history vs. fiction -- this is a historical drama, but that doesn't mean we're dealing with non-fiction. while david goyer insisted that at least 85-90 percent of their story comes from history, "da vinci's demons" has more than a little embellishment. as goyer pointed out, "one of the themes of this show is 'history is a lie.'" what bits are fictionalized? well, there does seem to be a whole lot of sorcery-related stuff, which -- even if based on fact -- probably got exaggerated for tv. also, the show brings da vinci together with contemporaries that he probably didn't meet. and the best possibly fictional meeting? that would be with the romanian prince, vlad dracul. you might know the man better as dracula. that's right -- leonardo da vinci meets freakin' count dracula!

da vinci's sexuality -- as any student of popular history knows, there has been a lot of speculation over the years as to the specific orientation of leonardo's sexuality. does the tv version follow along that speculation? kind of. while the trailer starz aired showed da vinci sharing intimacy with (several) women, the panelists assured reporters that other orientation options were a definite possibility.

leonardo da vinci, superhero -- many reporters quickly noted that leonardo, in the starz version, is something of a renaissance superhero. it's not an accident. while we shouldn't expect superman or anything, comparisons to batman are definitely there. da vinci's parentage was mysterious and possibly violent, both men had a transformative experience in a cave, and -- as goyer pointed out -- batman's original cape design was based on da vinci's sketch of a glider. the big difference would be that da vinci builds war machines, attends parties and rides a horse. that's not batman's type of thing.
