TOM RILEY NEWS

Cinema Blend has a great preview article for tomorrow night's premiere of season 2. Read it in full on the site.

An interview with Tom and David S. Goyer discussing Da Vinci's Demons season 2, recorded last October at NYCC, has been uploaded to You Tube. 

The Da Vinci's Demons season 2 Access Hollywood interviews are not embeddable (and many have been deleted), so the links are provided below.

An interview with Tom, recorded at the British Museum in February, has been uploaded to You Tube by George Satsidis.

The first season found the genius inventor to be a cocky sort and one whose search for knowledge was almost artistic in its level of obsession, Riley says. "As a result, everyone around him would be collateral damage."

The next chapters in his life, however, find da Vinci's veering more toward the wise man of his later years and discovering that the negative influence he has on his friends is also a negative influence on himself.

The video interview with Tom and Laura Haddock, tweeted abut yesterday by Popsugar, has been shared online. Yahoo TV has shared hi-res versions of yesterday's arty photos. 

Some gorgeous (but small) behind the scenes photos, from the set of Da Vinci's Demons season 2, have been shared by USA Today. I hope bigger ones appear, so everyone can appreciate just how gorgeous and detailed the sets actually are. The article includes interviews with Tom and the cast, and a new clip from the premiere featuring Riario. Read it in full on the website

Have you adopted Leo's sartorial style by wearing open shirts all the time?

I'm sitting here right now and my belly button's so cold. [Laughs.] No, I haven't. I haven't. That's not a practical look, particularly when you live in England.

One thing I like that you do with your character is the thing with the hand when he's tackling a problem. How did you come up with that?
