Netflix’s latest embarkment with the new series drama, Marco Polo, will get its day exactly one month from today, and thankfully, a trailer premiered just last month to share an awe-inspiring glimpse into the potent, compelling and dangerous world shaping our title character’s story. That said, we now finally have some official artwork to share ahead of its premiere, featuring lead actor Lorenzo Richelmy front and center.
Check it out below!
In a world replete with greed, betrayal, sexual intrigue and rivalry, “Marco Polo” is based on the famed explorer’s adventures in Kublai Khan’s court in 13th century China.
Created by John Fusco (The Forbidden Kingdom, Kung Fu Panda, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Green Legend), the series is also being produced by The Weinstein Company co-chairman Harvey Weinstein and Game Of Thrones series director Dan Minahan, in addition to Pirates Of The Carribean 5 helmers Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg who are directing the first few of the nine-episode series for U.S. distribution. Richelmy is joined by actor Amr Waked and actress Zhu Zhu, and actors Benedict Wong, Tom Wu, Remy Hii and Rick Yune rounding out the principle cast with stunt coordinator Brett Chan directing the action.
