The new season also has da Vinci coming to terms with the effects of his "blind" quest to find the Book of Leaves. "He begins to realise what he's doing is not just having an effect on other people but him as well," Riley said. "He's not the invincible man he thought he was."
Riley will soon film a guest role for the upcoming series of Doctor Who, opposite new Time Lord Peter Capaldi. "He's such a fantastic actor. I think he's going to really shape up The Doctor," he said.
AX: You and the other DA VINCI’S DEMONS people have to talk to a lot of journalists in the course of promoting the series. Does having to talk about the work so much affect the work in any way?
Another video of a NYCC roundtable interview, recorded in October last year, has been uploaded to You Tube by Televixen. David S. Goyer and Tom discuss season 2 of Da Vinci's Demons.
I loved Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton's Inside No 9. The way that they constrained each episode to a single location, then tasked themselves with including completely new characters every week, within a single half-hour. It could have been a disaster, but that economy of time and place meant it was just inventive and creative, entertaining… I loved it.
A brilliant 25 minute interview with Tom and David S. Goyer has been uploaded to You Tube. Tom and David are very funny together, and give some amazing insights into the show.
Another video interview promoting Da Vinci's Demons season 2, with Tom and Laura Haddock, recorded in New York last month but not spotted until today, has been shared by ShirkTV.
The very long, painful wait of 2 weeks for Da Vinci's Demons season 2 (for UK fans), following the premiere on Starz, ends tomorrow night. The new season will finally broadcast on FOX TV tomorrow night at 10pm!
