TOM RILEY NEWS

Starz are broadcasting a behind the scenes preview for Da Vinci's Demons at the moment on the Blockbuster Channel. Check provider listings for schedule details - there appears to be multiple broadcasts. FOX UK will be doing the same from 12th April at 10pm. Again check listings. 

FOX International Channels have uploaded a great video montage of the Da Vinci's Demons world premiere in Florence on Tuesday. Tom can be seen a number of times during the video - being interviewed, photographed and on stage.

The montage includes some of Bear McCreary's score for the show. The photo above is one of the gorgeous photocall images released by Starz yesterday. 

Two new interviews with Tom have been shared online. The first is via the Press Association, where Tom and Laura Haddock tell us about the weather and wellington boots David S. Goyer wore during production. A video of the interview can be found on this website, while a transcript of a slightly longer interview can be found here.  

FOX International Channels have been sharing some fantastic photos on the Da Vinci's Demons live blog of the press conference today and also of the main cast touring Florence. 

Den of Geek has shared an amusing yet interesting interview with Tom and Laura Haddock, and also a spoiler free review of the first episode of Da Vinci's Demons. 

Riley (Monroe, Lost in Austen) is our kind of leading man; one who effuses over both the Justice League and Goya, declaims against Ewoks, and uses adjectives like Lostian...

FOX International Channels has been updating the Live Blog for the Da Vinci's Demons World Premiere tonight in Florence.

Photos from the red carpet have been shared along with video interviews with the cast including Tom (looking fantastic in a charcoal suit)!

Yet another great interview with Tom has appeared online tonight, this time from Dish Magazine, where his da Vinci has been described as a "mix of Sherlock crossed with Tony Stark...crossed with Indiana Jones...crossed with Aladdin from the Disney film..."

AfterElton: Were you surprised that the issue of Da Vinci’s sexuality has become such a big talking point with the show?

Tom Riley: No, because when I did my research I saw a part of it, and when David was writing and we were discussing it and when we were choosing certain episodes, we were determined to be utterly unflinching on a network where we can be. So we may as well pay as much respect to that speculation.

Another brand new, wonderfully fascinating interview with Tom by Luaine Lee, from January's TCA event in Pasadena, has appeared on a couple of sites online. In it he discusses his childhood, his inspirations, auditioning for Da Vinci's Demons and driving perfectionism. Read in full on this website.
