Title: ‘Medici’
Post by: patch on June 16, 2017, 08:55:41 AM
Sean Bean and ‘24’ Showrunner Join Second Season of ‘Medici’ (EXCLUSIVE)

Quote
Sean Bean will appear in the second season of epic Italy-set period drama “Medici: Masters of Florence.” U.S. showrunner Jon Cassar of “24: Legacy” and “24: Live Another Day” has also come on board the new season.

Cassar will direct and produce four of the eight episodes of the new “Medici,” whose first season starred Dustin Hoffman and was a runaway hit for RAI 1 in Italy, notably with younger viewers. Frank Spotnitz returns and will executive produce the series.

Bean will play poker-faced scheming aristocrat Jacopo Pazzi in the new run, which will likely be called “Medici: Lorenzo the Magnificent.” As with Season 1, it will be co-produced between Italy’s Lux Vide and public broadcaster RAI.

Lux Vide, which was a co-producer on the BBC’s “War and Peace,” is one of a handful of Italy-based producers coming to international attention with big English-language productions. The second season of “Medici” has a €24 million ($27 million) budget, placing it firmly in the ranks of high-end TV drama.

The show is set in 15th-century Florence and follows the Medici banking dynasty. In the first season, Hoffman played the family patriarch and Richard Madden his son Cosimo. The new series is set 20 years later, with the producers currently in talks with Madden to have him appear in flashback sequences.

Netherlands-based cable and telecoms group Altice is moving into streaming and original programming, and its Altice Studio is also a co-production partner on “Medici.” Altice’s SFR Play streaming service will carry the show in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Switzerland.

Netflix has rights to the new season of “Medici” in the U.S., U.K., Canada, India, and Taiwan, where it will be billed as a “Netflix Original.” Telefonica has bought it for its Movistar Plus pay service in Spain.

Shooting starts in August across locations in Italy, and will wrap by year’s end for a 2018 launch on RAI and the other platforms. Wild Bunch handled sales of the first season as it moved into TV distribution; buyers included Hulu Japan, Sky Deutschland, and Fox Latin America. The distributor for Season 2 has not been confirmed.

Lux Vide, based in Rome, is now looking to attract British and American partners as it continues to work up a slate of projects for the global market and to expand internationally. Upcoming series include “Devils,” a 10-part drama for Sky Italia set in the world of high finance during the global financial crisis.

“Now you have global television,” said Lux Vide chief Luca Bernabei. “You’re not competing just with people in Europe, you’re competing with the U.S. and the rest of the world, and the level of investment being made is completely different. You have to make shows that are bigger than before but there is still a need for producers who can develop scripts and new ideas for the market.”

With "The Oath" filming now, do you think this is still happening? Like did he officially sign on to this project too?

My goodness, his television presence is much more prominent than film these days. I kind of like this change.

Probably only Sean and his agent really know, but it is doable, I think. Medici is supposed to start filming in August and with a star with Sean's status, they will work around his schedule, I imagine.

I do, too. Good TV is better than most films these days. And Sean is quite a subtle actor so the longer the series the better so you see the character development. I hope you have seen "Broken."

I have yes! But only through crappy uploads. I hope it airs in North America. Broken was fantastic and I would love to see it in good quality. I had to order a region free dvd player and import The Frankenstein Chronicles as well, as A&E seems to not want to air it at all... It seems the shows he does that only air in the UK are so much better quality than that of his American shows (Legends, Missing). The Frankenstein Chronicles was fantastic too, worthy of many awards. Actually it was one of my favourite Sean Bean projects ever!

A huge congratulations is in order regarding Medici. We’re all very excited to see what happens next. Does the new series have a subtitle yet?

I believe “Medici: Lorenzo the Magnificent” will be our subtitle for this series. We’ve jumped ahead almost 50 years, so all of the characters from the first season are either dead – or if they’ve made it, they’re much older now. Lorenzo was really the Medici that everybody remembers. In Italy, that’s the hero. And there’s an amazing story with him and something called the “Pazzi Conspiracy” where they tried to murder him inside the church that his grandfather built! It was unbelievable. I mean you couldn’t write this stuff.

And we have Sean Bean on board, so we’re very excited about that. I worked a little bit with Sean on his show Legends. I re-shot some of the pilot for that, so I’ve a bit of a working relationship with him. He’s and unbelievable professional actor. I can’t wait to be working with him again.

A good part of the second season's series will be made in Volterra to continue in the Tuscan territory and for this reason the castings for the extras will take place on the 14th and 15th of September in the Etruscan city.

To participate in the castings you will have to show up on Thursday 14th September (women and children only) and Friday 15th September (men only) from 9am to 6pm with a break between 13am and 14pm. Women from 18 years of age to 73 and Italian non-EU citizens.  For people who are 74 years of age will need to bring a medical certificate attesting to good health.  All candidates must have photocopies of a valid identity card, tax code and Iban.  For non-EU citizens you will also need to bring a photocopy of the passport and the valid residence permit.  Those who are unauthorized to such documents may risk not being admitted.  Being a vintage film, you will not be able to participate in casting even men and women with hair with visible, visible meches, piercings and tattoos.  However, participation in calves is allowed.

Daniel Sharman and Bradley James Join Netflix’s ‘Medici’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Quote
The producers of Netflix’s “Medici: Masters of Florence” have completed casting for season two, with Daniel Sharman and Bradley James among the new names on the Frank Spotnitz and Nicholas Meyer-created Italian period drama.

An international cast is headed by Sharman (“Fear the Walking Dead”), who will take the lead role, playing a young Lorenzo the Magnificent in 15th century Florence. James (“Damien”) will star as his brother Giuliano.

Shooting on the €24 million ($28 million), eight-episode, series gets underway in Rome on August 24. Other key cast members for season two include Julian Sands (“Gotham”) as Lorenzo and Giuliano’s father, Piero, and Sebastian De Souza (“Crossing Lines”) as their friend, Sandro Botticelli.

The sophomore season of “Medici” is set 20 years after the events of the first. A young Lorenzo, the nephew of Richard Madden’s character Cosimo from the first series, is forced to take over the family bank, which has been mismanaged by his father.

As Lorenzo, his brother, and Botticelli set about trying to make Florence a great financial and cultural center, they face off against the Pazzi family, and Pope Sixtus IV, played by Raul Bova (“Alien vs. Predator”).

Sean Bean had already been announced as the Medici family’s nemesis Jacopo Pazzi. Lorenzo’s mother is played by Sarah Parish “Hatfields & McCoys”) and his mistress by Alessandra Mastronardi (“Master of None”).

The series is produced by Italy’s Lux Vide, public broadcaster Rai’s drama unit, and Frank Spotnitz’s company Big Light. “The X Files” writer Frank Spotnitz created the series with “Star Trek’s” Nicholas Meyer. U.S. showrunner Jon Cassar of “24: Legacy” and “24: Live Another Day” will direct.

“Medici: Masters of Florence” will be a Netflix Original in the U.S., U.K., Canada, India, and Taiwan and Rai is the broadcaster in Italy. Altice Studio is a co-production partner and has it for its SFR Play streaming service in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Switzerland. In Spain, it is with Telefonica’s Movistar Plus.

Medici Masters of Florence. What to expect in the second series.
Quote
Filming has just started for the second series of Medici Masters of Florence, in Volterra, the Tuscan hilltop town that will be the setting of the new Medici adventures. The protagonist? Lorenzo il Magnifico (or Magnificent) who was the grandson of Cosimo de’ Medici, and by far the most fascinating character of the Medici dynasty.


Medici Masters of Florence Second Series – What’s it all about?

In the first series “Medici Masters of Florence” we witnessed the rise of Giovanni and Cosimo de’ Medici, as they struggle to gain wealth and power against rival families like the Albizzi. It was a whodunnit story for a murder that never actually happened. This time we hope the scriptwriters won’t need to stray that far from history.

The next season tells the story of a fascinating member of the Medici family, known as Lorenzo Il Magnifico (1449-1492). An extremely charismatic man, a statesman and a poet, whose brother was murdered by ruthless political rivals, he was a victim of attempted murder himself. There are love interests in his story too, so it’ll definitely make a good viewing.
 

Sean Bean, actor of Game of Thrones, plays Jacopo Pazzi, one of the Medici detractors who plot to have Lorenzo and his brother killed.

Blood and Rivalry – The Pazzi Conspiracy

The Pazzi Conspiracy is a bloody and dramatic episode in Florentine history, so we can only presume it will feature in the series. But this time the murder was very real. It happened inside Florence’s Cathedral (which incidentally wouldn’t at that time have had the ornate facade it does now), and  brother Giuliano really did die after being stabbed. Lorenzo on the other hand managed to escape and flee.

SPOILER ALERT: if they stick to history, this Jacopo will be captured and hanged from one of windows in Palazzo Vecchio in Piazza della Signoria.


The series will be released in Italy this winter most likely and,, will be on Netflix sometime in 2018, though no dates are confirmed yet. According to Variety, “the budget will be 24 million Euros, putting this production in the league of high-end TV”.

SPOILER ALERT: if they stick to history, this Jacopo will be captured and hanged from one of windows in Palazzo Vecchio in Piazza della Signoria.

That bit of history featured prominently in the movie "Hannibal," when Dr. Lecter reenacted the hanging of one of the de Pazzi family conspirators with a Pazzi descendent who was unwise enough to cross him.

I think they might be referring to alabaster. Volterra has some pretty serious alabaster mines and the powers that be in Florence took control of them. Under Lorenzo the Magnificent there was a revolt.

Lorenzo charged the Duke of Urbino to put it down and there was carnage and brutality of truly epic proportions.

The House of Medici: Its Rise and Fall
Quote
X
THE POPE AND THE PAZZI

  The Pazzi were a much older family than the Medici.1 One of their forebears, Pazzo de’ Pazzi, had been on the First Crusade and had returned to Florence with some flints from the altar of the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem which were deposited in the church of Sant’ Apostoli.2 They had loftily scorned trade up till the beginning of the thirteenth century; but in 1342 they had renounced their ancient lineage so as to be declared popolani and thus render themselves qualified for government office. They had subsequently made a fortune in banking. The head of the family in the early fifteenth century was Andrea de’ Pazzi who spent a sizable part of that fortune in commissioning Brunelleschi to build the Pazzi Chapel next to Santa Croce.3 His son, Piero, spent a good deal more of it on a fine library. But Piero’s brother, Jacopo, who succeeded him in 1464, was not so concerned to spend money as to conserve it.
   Indeed, Jacopo was a tight-fisted old man, noted throughout Florence for his passion for gambling, and for losing his temper when he did not win. He thought the chances of a successful coup d’état were so slight that he was ‘colder than ice’ when his young relative, Francesco, apprised him of the plot being hatched in Rome. Besides, Guglielmo, one of his ten nephews, was Lorenzo’s brother-in-law, and he himself was on good terms with the Medici, even though Lorenzo’s rule threatened to continue to exclude his family from any real authority in the State. To be sure, like the rest of his family, he had been extremely annoyed when Lorenzo interfered in the matter of Giovanni Borromeo’s fortune. A Pazzi had married a daughter of this Borromeo and had naturally expected to inherit at least a good part of her family’s money; but when the father died a new law was passed – supposedly at the instigation of the Medici – which enabled his estate to pass to his nephews, who were known to be Medici supporters, rather than to his daughter and her husband, who were not. But Jacopo de’ Pazzi did not consider the Borromeo affair sufficient grounds for taking the inordinate risks involved in staging a coup d’état.
   Supposing, however, that if he could produce evidence of strong military support the old man might yet be won over, Francesco de’ Pazzi now approached Gian Battista da Montesecco, a condottiere who had done good work in the past in the service of the Curia.
.......
Montesecco set about enlisting the military forces that would be required and left for the Romagna to discuss the tactics of the coup with various fellow condottieri in Tolentino, Imola and Città di Castello. He then rode across the Appenines to Florence to give Lorenzo assurances of Girolamo Riario’s friendship and good will.
   Lorenzo was in mourning for one of Clarice’s relations when Montesecco arrived at Cafaggiolo; but he was amiable, talkative and attractive as ever. He spoke of Riario in the most friendly way; and Montesecco, captivated by his charm, began to regret the unpleasant task he had agreed to perform. Lorenzo accompanied him back to Florence where, in his room at the Albergo della Campagna, Montesecco had a visit from Jacopo de’ Pazzi for whom he had letters from both Riario and the Archbishop.
   Jacopo was as gloomy, cross and pessimistic as ever. ‘They are going to break their necks,’ he told Montesecco. ‘I understand what is going on here better than they do. I do not want to listen to you. I do not want to hear any more about it.’
   When he learned what Montesecco had to relate about the audience with the Pope, however, his mood gradually changed; and before long he was a whole-hearted, not to say enthusiastic, supporter of the plot, ready to take an active part in its development. He suggested that the best way of carrying out the assassinations would be to find some pretext for separating the two brothers, then to kill them both as far as possible simultaneously.
........
So many people had by now been apprised of the intended assassinations that it seemed to the Pazzi too dangerous to delay them any longer lest the secret leak out. Moreover, the troops whom Montesecco had arranged to have concentrated at various strategic points around the city would by dusk have arrived beneath the walls. If the Medici could not be killed together at the banquet, they would have to be dispatched in the Cathedral during Mass, an occasion which other assassins had found ideal. Giuliano could be stabbed by Francesco de’ Pazzi, assisted by Bernardo Bandini Baroncelli, an adventurer anxious to make some money quickly, having dissipated a fortune and being deeply in debt to the Pazzi with whom he had formerly been associated in business. At the same time Lorenzo could be cut down by Montesecco. But this idea was abhorrent to Montesecco. Before he had met Lorenzo he had succeeded in persuading himself that to kill him was all in the way of a soldier’s duty; but since he had first spoken to him, he had been growing increasingly disgusted with his appointed task. Now he saw an opportunity to escape it altogether by protesting that his conscience would not allow him to ‘add sacrilege to murder’; he could not bring himself to kill a man in cold blood in a place where ‘God would see him’. Fortunately for the conspirators less scrupulous assassins immediately presented themselves in the persons of two lean, embittered priests, Antonio Maffei, a Volterran who hated Lorenzo for the part he had played in suppressing the recent uprising in his native town, and Stefano da Bagnone, tutor to Jacopo de’ Pazzi’s illegitimate daughter.
........
[description of the attempt on Lorenzo and Giuliano Medici]
........
Members of the Pazzi family and small groups of their supporters rode up and down through the streets shouting, ‘Libertà Libertà! Popolo e Libertà! Abasso i Medici! Abasso le pallet Libertà! Libertà!’ But although some of the people in the crowd joined in these shouts, most of them responded insistently with,’ Vivano le palle! Vivano le palle! Palle! Palle! Palle!’
........
Jacopo de’ Pazzi, so overcome by despair at the failure of the plot that he boxed his own ears and threw himself to the floor in despair and rage, managed to escape from the city to the village of Castagno; but the villagers recognized him and brought him back to Florence where, after being tortured, he was stripped naked and strung from a window of the Palazzo della Signoria next to the Archbishop. Later, he was buried in Santa Croce; but the people, blaming the subsequent heavy rains upon his evil spirit, dug up the body and threw it into a ditch in an apple orchard. From here also it was later removed, to be dragged through the streets by a mob shouting, ‘Make way for the great knight!’ It was then propped against the door of the Pazzi Palace where, to the accompaniment of obscene jokes and cries of ‘Open! Your master wishes to enter!’ its decomposing head was used as a knocker. Eventually, the putrid corpse was thrown into the Arno from which it was fished by a gang of children who strung it up on the branch of a willow tree, flogged it and tossed it back into the water again.

My husband, who always enjoys the idea of Sean Bean being dispatched on screen, is very much hoping that all of this is filmed.

He's also hoping that one day Sean will play Rasputin, so he can be poisoned, shot, stabbed, and thrown in a river all in one movie. :coma:

  Blown horses, a reversed carriage and a luckily injured person not seriously injured.  It happened this morning on the Medici 2 set, but it was not a scenes scene but a real injury, following which a 49-year-old was injured.  The man was rescued and then transported to hospital for searches.  Medici 2 is a fiction in which cast also includes actor Raoul Bova, and which are being filmed between Mantua and the province.  This morning the crew moved to Marmirolo, where the incident occurred.

Mantua, love and death on the set of TV series The Doctors
Quote
Another day of filming in Mantua's second season of the lucky TV series The Doctors, which sees among the protagonists Raoul Bova.  This morning, Monday, October 2, early in the day, around 6.30 am, technicians and installing workers were already in Erbe Square and Concordia Square for shooting.  A little later came actors and extras who shot some scenes between Concordia Square and the San Lorenzo roundabout, under the amused look of many Mantuvans and tourists walking around the city.  (video Saccani)

MANTUA.  Love and death yesterday on the set of "The Doctors 2 Masters of Florence" and a beautiful movement in the square Erbe and Concordia Square that intrigued passers-by.

 The Rotunda of St. Lawrence has hosted two crucial events of the Rai series.  In the morning, the wedding in 1473 by Caterina Sforza , the little girl's bride, played by Nicole Brugnoli , and Girolamo Riario , was brought to life by 34-year-old Romanian actor Marius Bizau , frosty.  Among the nobility of the wedding procession there is also a special appearance, Damiano Vicovaro former mayor of San Giorgio, who for the part has cut his beloved mustache.

Always in the Rotonda (actually it was Santo Stefano in Milan), in the afternoon there was the assassination, that of Galeazzo Sforza , Catherine's father, who was killed on December 26, 1476


Initially, Sean Bean had spoken of Lorenzo the Magnificent, but it was then known that the character of "The Throne of Swords" is actually Jacopo de Pazzi , the leader of the conspiracy in which Giuliano , the brother of Lorenzo the Magnificent, will die.

Bèta Film Acquires New ‘Medici’ Season With Sean Bean, Daniel Sharman, Bradley James (EXCLUSIVE)
Quote
In the run-up to Mipcom, Beta Film has acquired international sales rights to “Medici: Masters of Florence. The Magnificent,” a sequel to the hit Italian period drama (pictured) created by Frank Spotnitz.

The eight-hour series, which is currently being shot on historic locations in Tuscany and in studio in Rome, stars Daniel Sharman (“Teen Wolf”), Bradley James (“Homeland”) and Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones”). Rather than being billed as a second season of “Medici: Masters of Florence,” “The Magnificent” was conceived as a different show and will have a different look from the first series. Jon Cassar, the exec producer and director of “24: Legacy” and “24: Live Another Day,” has come on board to direct the new series.

“The Magnificent” begins in Florence in 1469, where an attempt on Piero de Medici’s life forces his son Lorenzo (Sharman) to assume leadership of the family-run bank. Once in power, young Lorenzo, nicknamed The Magnificent, resolves to do things differently, which swiftly brings him into conflict with the head of Florence’s other powerful banking family, Jacopo Pazzi (Bean).

“Lorenzo is a true Renaissance man and one of the greatest figures in history. When he takes leadership of the family, his idealism is put to the test, and culminates in the incredible but true story of the Pazzi conspiracy, a real-life thriller that’s still shocking centuries later,” said Spotnitz.

The cast of “The Magnificent” is completed by Sarah Parish (“Pillars of the Earth”), Alessandra Mastronardi (“Master of None”), Synnøve Karlsen (“Clique”), Raoul Bova (“The Tourist,” “Under the Tuscan Sun”) and Julian Sands (“Gotham”). Shooting is expected to wrap in December.

Budgeted at 24 million euros ($28 million), the series is being produced by Lux Vide in collaboration with Rai Fiction, Altice Group and Big Light Productions Ltd. Spotnitz is executive-producing with Luca Bernabei, Matilde Bernabei, Jon Cassar, Emily Feller, Daniele Passani and Nora Melhli.

The first images of the show will be presented at Mipcom with Sharman and Spotnitz attending, as well as Lux Vide’s Luca and Matilde Bernabei, Beta Film’s Jan Mojto and Rai Fiction director Eleonora Andreatta.

Andreatta at Rai said the broadcaster was “proud to share this great project that brings Italy to the world with companies that represent international excellence and have always been able to think big and innovate.” Mojto said the series addressed the universal theme of “young people with young ideas breaking up old structures.”

“The Magnificent” represents a significant investment from Altice Group. “Medici: Masters of Florence” marked Altice’s first premium drama acquisition. “The incredible adventure of one of the most famous families of their time completely fulfills our promise to our viewers: to bring them the best original shows and exclusive stories,” said Melhli at Altice Group.

Medici is currently shooting on location in Tuscany and in studios in Rome, with principle photography expected to wrap by December.

I think that his schedule agreed. As I understand it from FB, they have already shot the scenes of the murder of Giuliano (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1924739277544132&set=pcb.1924739360877457&type=3&theater), it remains to shoot scenes of call for sedition (I want to see Sean riding!).  And the reprisals against the conspirators (poor Sеаn, again)

Con Sean Bean.....potevamo venire meglio, solo che io ero in ipotermia e lui si è praticamente addormentato durante lo scatto, facce da dimenticare, ma insomma, è Boromir, è Ned Stark, è il capoccia dei Pazzi, ma soprattutto è una persona gentile e disponibile, con uno sguardo che incute timore e rispetto insieme (ma non qui).....

On the bright side, at least it doesn't look like he'll be disemboweled before being hanged in the manner of Pazzi's descendant in the "Hannibal" movie.

erm...  If they stick to the historical version, first  he'll be beaten to within an inch of his life, then tortured, then hanged, then buried, then dig up andbe be dragging around the streets, the corpse's head would be knocked at the door of his palazzo, and finally  will be tossed his body in the river.

Will Netflix’s English-Language ‘Medici: Masters of Florence’ Rescue Italy’s TV Biz?
Quote
During the early 15th century the Medici family helped foster a cultural revolution that took Italy out of the dark ages. Cut to the present. The English-language “Medici: Masters of Florence” TV series, which Frank Spotnitz is showrunning on a $28 million budget co-financed by Netflix, is considered a harbinger of change within the Italian TV industry.

The first eight-episode season, in which Dustin Hoffman played Giovanni de’ Medici, the Florentine family’s patriarch, scored an average primetime share of more than 25% in 2016 on Italian pubcaster RAI and traveled widely.

The second installment, “Medici: Masters of Florence. The Magnificent,” will instead feature Daniel Sharman (“Teen Wolf”) as Lorenzo de’ Medici and Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones”) as Jacopo de’ Pazzi, head of a rival banking family who plotted to kill the Florentine ruler known as The Magnificent.

Co-produced by Rome’s Lux Vide with Rai Fiction, Altice Group and Spotnitz’s Big Light Prods., the show — which will go out as a Netflix original in North America and India — is about to wrap 82 days of shooting directed by Jon Cassar (“24”) and Italy’s Jan Michelini. They say this season will be more fast-paced and youth-skewing.

Cameras started rolling in late August at Lux Vide’s Rome studios, where interiors of the Medici and Pazzi palazzi were meticulously reconstructed, as were more than 2,500 square feet of frescoes by early Renaissance masters. After six weeks, production moved to more than 30 locations in Tuscany, Lombardy and the Lazio region, where castles, museums, churches and piazzas provided Renaissance elements that doubled for spots where the real historical events took place.

Production designer Francesco Frigeri says he’s particularly proud of work shot in the Tuscan town of Volterra, which doubled for Florence, especially in its central square, which was augmented with some sets to make it look like Florence’s famed Piazza della Signoria six centuries ago.


Costume designer Alessandro Lai seized the “Medici” opportunity to work with Tuscan clothing manufacturers and fashion houses, and not just showbiz costume companies. Hats and jewels were made in Florence, shoes and boots in Lucca. Soft leather came from designer bag maker Bottega Veneta, while Fendi furnished “the same type of mink fur trims as those of the times,” Lai says.

A new article on "La Nazione" informs us that the crew of the Medici series is visiting and selecting the locations for the third season. 🎬

While in the latest weeks took place the Italian dubbing for season two, works are already in progress for season three, that will be about the second part of the life of Lorenzo the Magnificent.
The city of Volterra is looking forward to be once again one of the main locations: "next months will be crucial for the negotiations, but it's highly possible that the Medici court will move again to Volterra from next October, when season two will be released". ⚜

The Medici return to Florence and Daniel Sharman tells his Lorenzo
Quote
Sean Bean does not play the role of a positive character, on the contrary embodies the dark Jacopo Pazzi, a bitter enemy of the Lords of Florence and Lorenzo (not yet the Magnificent, given the young age), in particular: a hatred that will culminate in the bloody conspiracy hatched by the Florentine family of bankers de 'Pazzi (1478), with the aim of stopping the hegemony of Medici thanks to the support of the papacy and allies like the Republic of Siena and the Kingdom of Naples. "A man blinded by hatred unable to enjoy all the beauty around him," explains the British actor, painting the tormented soul of his character.

Third Season of 'Medici: The Magnificent' Sells Globally Ahead of Season 2 Premiere
Quote
As both seasons include former Game of Thrones actors, and the season even opens with a sword fight, the crew was asked if the decision to have GOT actors Madden and Bean was intentional.

“There is certainly political intrigue in jockeying for power.  And I think when you get to the final two episodes the scenes between Jacopo and Lorenzo are incredibly powerful because they’re two completely different views of the world crashing up against each other ” said Spotnitz.

“I don’t think I literally meant to bring Game of Thrones to Medici. They are vastly different,” he continued. “But there’s a style of collaboration in American television where writers collaborate without ego to generate the most powerful narrative possible and it was that methodology that I wanted to bring to this project.”

“And there are no dragons,” added Bean.

The Medici 2, Frank Spotnitz and the cast: "We brought some American style to Rai"
Quote
The first two episodes will be available on Raiplay from October 16 to allow a non-linear view. From October 23 Doctors 2 arrives on Rai 1 in four evenings, while Netflix will distribute it in the Anglo-Saxon world.

 The mind behind the Medici is Frank Spotnitz who, after exploring the mysteries of X-Files , together with Nicholas Meyer decided to explore the Italian Renaissance with its splendor and its conflicts: "The challenge was to tell the story of the Renaissance to a modern public Why should young people today be interested in a history of bankers of 500. I looked for modernity in the Medici and I found a privileged young man who decides to take risks to change the world making it better Lorenzo de 'Medici is an idealist, he wants to change the world and challenges the established order represented by the character of Sean Bean. I find it a moving story, full of meaning on the past, but also on the present. And then shooting in Florence, Volterra, Rome, in the places of the Renaissance was a dream "

Of few words, Sean Bean plays the villain of the show, Jacopo Pazzi, rich head of a rival family of the Medici. The star of The Lord of the Rings and The Throne of Swords recognizes the limitations of his character in the face of the charm of the Medici who, with their resourcefulness, "have changed society." Jacopo Pazzi is the opposite, he is pragmatic, realistic, he does not appreciate art and this makes me feel sorry, Jacopo is intelligent, but he does not see Lorenzo's revolutionary power " . Faced with a possible parallelism between the Medici and the throne of swords, Sean Bean pulls back laughing and admits: "I will have little imagination as well, but I do not find similarities, there are not even dragons" . Frank Spotnitz intervenespointing out: "There are no precise references, we have brought some American style to Rai.The first season was about capitalism and the birth of the middle class, in the 2-3 seasons we will face the political power and its consequences. value of art and beauty? What really matters? This country is a testimony to the power of art, Lorenzo is a martyr of this cause " .

Sean Bean on How His 'Medici' Character Is Like Steve Bannon, Hopes for 'Game of Thrones' Prequels

Quote
The South Yorkshire actor stars in two upcoming TV series.

Sean Bean is a busy man, starring in two major TV series coming out soon.

The first is Medici: Lorenzo the Magnificent, a production by Lux Vide in cooperation with Rai Fiction, Big Light Productions and Altice Group. The new season, which follows Medici: Masters of Florence, has sold globally. It premieres in Italy on Rai Uno on Oct. 23, and in the U.S. on Netflix later this year.

Bean plays master manipulator Jacopo de' Pazzi, leader of a rival Florentine banking family, intent on bringing down rising star Lorenzo de Medici (Daniel Sharman). The season follows Pazzi has he works to undermine the benevolent Lorenzo, intent on regaining control of the city. It ends in the infamous “Pazzi Conspiracy,” when Pope Sixtus IV gives his consent to the Pazzi family to kill Lorenzo and his brother Giuliano in Florence Cathedral.

And early next year, Bean can be seen in the Sky One television series Curfew. The show, which also stars Adam Brody and Billy Zane, follows a crew of amateur drivers who gather from around the world to compete in an illegal night-time street race. It will be available in the U.S. through Charter Communications via its Spectrum Originals.

The Hollywood Reporter spoke with Bean about the relevance of his Medici character today, his "mental" Curfew role, and how he hopes the upcoming Lord of the Rings series and Game of Thrones prequels will provide something new and authentic for fans.

How was shooting in Italy for you?

It was good fun. It ran very smoothly. It takes awhile to find your feet on location. But once you get the swing of it, it was a real joy to work on.

Did you have to pick up sword fighting again?

Yeah, we rehearsed for a few hours. But I’ve done quite a lot of sword fighting in the past, so, it was a lot easier.

So this season there’s more action and there are more battle scenes than in the first season, right?

I guess I’ve got a bit of action. But I kind of just tend to stir it all up, then walk away, and everybody else is involved. I’m kind of a manipulative, Machiavellian type.

So are you sort of the Steve Bannon of the Medici?

Yeah. (laughs) That’s a good one, exactly. My character today would probably be him. I mean he’s quite convincing, isn’t he? He believes what he says. I mean that is something. It's difficult to find a politician that you can believe today. I watch him and – I don’t like his politics – but I like watching him.

But that’s the paradox right now, because he doesn’t seem as though he would promote Trump. He seems a totally different kind of personality. It’s just a pity he can’t just twist his opinions in the other directions, isn’t it, because he’s a brilliant speaker.

What could politicians learn today from the Medici?

I think just learn to respect the good things in life like the arts, literature, music, poetry, the stuff that people didn’t treat as some kind of privilege or something that you had to be the type of person to able to appreciate that art. It was everywhere, in every corner, on every wall. I don’t think there’s any major sign of modern day politicians trying to bring us the kind of art that the Medici promoted to the public.

Jacopo is a character who represents the old order?

Yeah, I don’t think he gets it at all. He doesn’t appreciate the arts. He’s much more like one of today’s politicians. He’s very pragmatic. He just sees art as something that's unnecessary and costly. He’s more interested in figures and money.

He thinks giving to the poor, it just seems pointless. He’s a proud, arrogant man. I almost feel sorry for him that he can’t appreciate something so wonderful.


Bean as Jacopo de ‘Pazzi

How familiar were you with the story beforehand?

Not a great deal. I knew the Medici family, but I wasn’t familiar with Jacopo de' Pazzi or all the fighting and the families. It’s kind of nice considering it's such a powerful family. You don’t learn this in school, in the U.K. or in America. I think it’s great, since they’ve left such a legacy that changed the course of world opinion on politics, and everything including banking for the next 500 years.

Richard Madden, your former son Robb Stark in Game of Thrones, starred in the first Medici series. Did you enjoy watching him play Cosimo?

Yeah, he was good. I always like him in what he does. He’s a nice guy, Richard. He’s very convincing. But yeah, it was quite strange seeing him.

Do you still communicate with your Stark family members?


Nobody, nobody at all! (laughs) I’ve only seen them on a couple of occasions. Last time, was about four weeks ago in Belfast. Conan O’Brien did this thing. It was the last episode, so we all got together. It was good! It’s funny with work, you don’t really keep in touch. You do so many types of jobs in that part of the world. It’s just like whenever I see old friends or even old drama school friends, it’s just the same, we pick up where we left off last time.

So Conan did a Game of Thrones special?

Yes, it was for season 8, the last one. So they decided to get all the characters together for a bit for this big show in Belfast and he kind of hosted the evening.



 


Why do you think Ned Stark is still so much in the public discourse, even though he was just in one season?

Yes. He’s mentioned a lot. He still seems to have a presence on the show. It’s something I was really proud of, a really top notch job. It’s either that or Boromir [from Lord of the Rings]. It used to be Boromir, but now it's Stark. (laughs)

Well, I think there are very few good people in Game of Thrones. He was a principled man, he was fair. He was a family man and he was also a warrior. He was well-respected by his family and the people he looked over. He applied that to his life in general, to his family, to everything he did. He came to realize being fair and being moral … you’re not going to survive by doing that.

But he didn’t change. That’s what I admired about him. He stuck to his guns. He meant it. He meant his fairness and his good qualities. But I think once he went down south, he didn’t really have much of a chance because, to them, backstabbing and treachery was a way of life. He was too honest, really.

Who would you choose to take the throne in the end?

Well, there aren’t that many left, is there?

Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, Daenerys Targaryen. Cersei?

Yeah, no. (laughs)

HBO announced possibly five prequels for the show. Would you want to be involved in one?

I don’t know how we can be. I don’t know how anyone can be, since they're going backwards, I’d be younger. Now, we all look a little bit older.

Well there’s technology for that. Would you be open to revisiting the character of Ned Stark?

How many years do they go back? Were we even in existence? It depends how far they go back. I’m always a bit reluctant to go back to shows under a different format or guise. But you never know with something like this, it just depends on the time frames.

I think if the quality was maintained. You know, the kind of thought behind it, if it didn’t look as though it was an add-on just to capitalize on earlier success.

Does four or five prequels seem like overkill to you?

It’s a lot, isn’t it. When Game of Thrones first came out, it was only the first season. Then we found out there’s another one and there was a huge excitement. They didn’t announce it would run till eight seasons, but I don’t think they knew themselves.

Do you have more fun playing the good characters or the bad guys?

Playing Ned Stark was good because he had a bit of a rough edge to him to him as well. He was a good man, but he was strong, a hard guy. And Jacopo is a hard guy, but he’s the opposite of Ned Stark. He’s treacherous. He seems to take pleasure in causing anguish to members of his own family, not to mention the people that he governs. But it’s always satisfying to play a meaty, juicy bad guy.



 


You also have Curfew coming out. What is your character like on that show?

I used to be a bit of a gangster in that character. Then I ended up in prison and marrying this young girl played by Rose Williams. Who’s actually in this now, in Medici [Caterina Sforza in season 3]! (laughs) So she’s my young, pregnant wife and it’s just about this mad car race, it’s mental. She’s having a baby and I’m trying to look after her, but I’m also slightly unhinged. So, she’s slightly unsure if she ever wants to be with me and bring a child into the world with me, and it kind of seesaws in that relationship between us. That’s one story, but there’s so many different stories with different threads running through it.

Do you enjoy doing your own stunts?

Yeah, I do. I mean, it depends what they are. If you’re on top of a mountain and it’s freezing cold, then I’m not doing that. I’m staying in the trailer. But I do what I think is necessary. But sometimes you can’t really tell somethings. If you do something extraordinarily dangerous, they won’t let you do it anyway and I’m okay with that. I guess when you’re younger, you think ‘I want to do everything, all my own stunts!’ Then you get a bit older, and you think, ‘Ah alright, if you don’t mind doing that, I’ll go have a rest.’ (laughs)

What do you think of the new Lord of the Rings?

Yeah, I mean I suppose anything’s alright, if it’s something new, or brings a different angle. As long as it doesn’t rest on its laurels or it doesn’t become self-satisfied and just keep repeating itself. Something’s got to be different, to move forward in a different direction. Lord of the Rings, is that a prequel?

No, Amazon is remaking it as a five-season TV series.

Oh, it’s just everything. (laughs) I guess there’s a lot of people out there that want to see it. That is a big, big book, isn’t it?

Would you do a different role with them, if you were asked to?

No, no. I couldn’t.

Your Lord of the Rings films were so definitive. What would they need to do to create a successful series?

Well, it's been nearly twenty years since it was made. It depends on who’s doing it. It depends how authentic it is to the book. If they don’t start messing around too much, because people liked the [original] Lord of the Rings because of how close it was to the book and Peter Jackson was so meticulous. It was just perfect. So I think, as long as it’s not just about monetary gain and if it’s good and it’s artistic and it’s true to the book, then it’s a good thing.

Do you have any other projects in the pipeline?

I’d like to work with my good friend Jimmy McGovern, who wrote Broken. We’re thinking about something at the moment, but we aren’t quite sure what it’s gonna be, so, I’d rather not say. But it will be something with TV, probably modern day. I’ve worked with this guy twice and it’s always been good and rewarding and provocative. Especially with Jimmy’s work, you can tell more story over a longer period of time. Usually with the BBC, you don’t have commercial breaks, rather than doing a film, where you only have two and half hours. Sometimes a story is just too big. I think television’s really good right now because of that.

Among all the international stars which hit her in a particular way and why?

"The star that hit me is Sean Bean. I am a big fan of The Throne of Swords and I wanted to ask him why they always kill him in the series but I did not have the courage. Sean Bean was wonderful. Unfortunately, my character never interfaces with his. In fact, I had the misfortune to meet him very few times, for example to make up. "

Medici: Masters of Florence season 2 streaming: How to watch online and download
MEDICI: MASTERS OF FLORENCE season 2 is airing in Italy this week. But how do you watch the new series starring Sean Bean online in the UK?
Quote
Episodes one and two of season two of Medici: Masters of Florence will be broadcast this week.

They will air on Italian network Rai 1 on Tuesday, October 23.

While the first season featured Dustin Hoffman and Bodyguard’s Richard Madden, the second series of Medici will be lead by Game of Thrones’ Sean Bean.

In the UK, the first season of Masters of Florence aired on Netflix.

How to watch Medici: Masters of Florence online

Netflix have not yet announced when they will be releasing Medici: Masters of Florence on Netflix.

Series one was released on Rai 1 from October 18, 2016 and did not start on Netflix until December 9.

As such, we might expect a similar gap between the release of Masters of Florence in Italy and on Netflix in the UK and other international markets.

In Italy, episodes can be caught up with on the Rai 1 website for a limited time after broadcast

All eight episodes of Medici season one can be watched on Netflix now for subscribers in the Canada, India, Ireland, the UK and US.

As no release date has been announced yet, it is likely that Netflix will release all eight episodes of season two at once rather than releasing them weekly as they do with shows like Riverdale, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and The Good Place.

This means that the earliest the show will be released on Netflix is after the final episode has aired in Italy on Tuesday, December 4.

When the series is released, new subscribers for Netflix can get it for free by signing up for a 30-day free trial, while users with existing devices will be able to download episodes for offline viewing.

It's the historical drama is based on the Medici family's rise to Renaissance power in Florence.

And Netflix has now offered a first look at its new period drama series, Medici: The Magnificent, which is a follow up from the 2016's Medici: Masters of Florence, starring Richard Madden.

Starring Sean Bean, the anthology series picks up 20 years after the first season and chronicles the journey of Lorenzo the Magnificent's son Lorenzo (Daniel Sharman) taking leadership of the family run bank in 15th Century Florence. 

The brand new trailer provides an exhilarating look at Lorenzo the Magnificent, the most powerful and historical figures of all time, and his son's journey to resume leadership. 

Once he finds himself in power, young Lorenzo is nicknamed The Magnificent as he attempts to do things differently.

His variation in tactics leads him into conflict with Jacopo Pazzi (Bean), who is the head of Florence’s other powerful banking family.

Sean's character will stop at nothing to defeat Lorenzo The Magnificent, and their feud paves way to the infamous Pazzi conspiracy. 

The conspiracy was a plot by members of the Pazzi family and others to displace the de' Medici family to become rulers as of Renaissance Florence.

Sean and Daniel join the likes of Sarah Parish, Bradley James, Alessandra Mastronardi, Synnøve Karslen, Raoul Bova and Julian Sands.

Direction of the eight episodes has been divided by 24 director Jon Cassar and Jan Maria Michelini, who helmed Medici: Masters of Florence.

Frank Spotnitz (The X-Files, The Man in the High) is executive-producing alongside CEO of Lux Vide, Luca Bernabei.

Netflix Unveils First-Look At ‘Medici: The Magnificent’ With Sean Bean & Daniel Sharman
Quote
The show is the follow-up to Medici: Masters of Florence, which starred Bodyguard’s Richard Madden and Dustin Hoffman.

The second season of the Italian drama, which is set in 15th century Florence, takes place 20 years after the first season and is set in the heart of the Renaissance through one of the most important historical figures of all times, Lorenzo the Magnificent. An attempt on Piero de Medici’s life forces his son Lorenzo, played Sharman, to assume leadership of the family-run bank. Once in power, young Lorenzo, nicknamed The Magnificent, resolves to do things differently, which swiftly brings him into conflict with the head of Florence’s other powerful banking family, Jacopo Pazzi, played by Bean, who will stop at nothing to defeat Lorenzo The Magnificent.

Quote
After years of stable management, the Medici Bank is owned by Piero de 'Medici. But the year 1469 brings disaster. Piero is lured into a trap and can only be saved by his sons Lorenzo and Giuliano.

Medici – The Magnificent
January 25th
 Following on from Medici: Masters of Florence, the second season of this period drama sees the show jump right into the Renaissance with the family’s powehaving been consolidated in the past 20 years as their grip on the Italian city tightens. Daniel Sharman plays Lorenzo de’Medici, who assumes leadership of the family-run bank, clashing with Sean Bean’s grizzled Jacopo de’Pazzi along the way. Expect the usual duplicitous behaviour and political manoeuvring as the historically renowned Pazzi Conspiracy begins to unfold.

Medici: The Magnificent, Netflix
Quote
Showrunner Frank Spotnitz says shooting in and around Florence helped to keep Netflix’s Italian drama true to its era – despite the city’s hordes of tourists
A grand old cinema in Florence plays host to the press screening for Medici: The Magnificent, just a stone’s throw from where some of the Netflix renaissance drama’s most poignant scenes take place. The decision to host the event in the Italian city is entirely purposeful.

The second series of Medici, which now counts Sean Bean among its cast, demonstrates a desire from writers, producers and cast alike to be as ‘local’ as possible, building on the success of several recent European Netflix series.

Sitting in the upper rooms of the Medici Palace, his weighty comments punctuated by the sound of traffic from the busy Florentine streets below, showrunner and X-Files writer Frank Spotnitz cannot emphasise the local element enough.

“The opportunity to shoot in Italy was one of the main reasons I wanted to do this show,” says Spotnitz. “It felt like such a privilege to come to these incredible places, where people have rarely been allowed to film. We got extraordinary access throughout and you can’t fake that; there’s a texture to it that’s inspiring.”
 Several fresh Florentine locations were scouted for series two, including the idyllic Tuscan towns of Volterra and Montepulciano. All was not plain sailing, however, and filming on location with a 100-person crew brought its own unique set of challenges, according to co-director Jan Michelini.

“The opportunity to shoot in Italy was one of the main reasons I wanted to do this show,” says Spotnitz. “It felt like such a privilege to come to these incredible places, where people have rarely been allowed to film. We got extraordinary access throughout and you can’t fake that; there’s a texture to it that’s inspiring.”

Several fresh Florentine locations were scouted for series two, including the idyllic Tuscan towns of Volterra and Montepulciano. All was not plain sailing, however, and filming on location with a 100-person crew brought its own unique set of challenges, according to co-director Jan Michelini.

During the Volterra shoot in November 2017, the town was hit by freezing winds and Michelini, who directed the last four episodes, was forced to work in sub-zero temperatures.

It took almost a week to film a defining 10-minute action sequence in a village church. “The challenge was to film the action almost like it wasn’t an action sequence, and to dramatise it on a human level in difficult conditions,” says Michelini, who counts Medici as his first major international drama directing role.




PUTTING THE CHARACTERS INTO CONTEXT

Sean Bean, last seen on UK screens delivering a Bafta-winning performance in Jimmy McGovern’s Broken, was just as enamoured with the Italian location as his off-screen colleagues. “It’s nice working in the country where everyone in the show existed, and being with an

Italian crew gave it a more authentic feel,” he says. “You don’t have to go far to be where you should be, as it’s all around you.”

RENAISSANCE MAN

Bean, who already had a keen interest in medieval European history, prepared for his first Italian renaissance role by reading up on his character Jacopo Pazzi, along with the wider historical context in which the series is set.

He was particularly taken by filming in the medieval town of Montepulciano during the chilly Italian winter. “The town was full of buildings that had all the original crests of the Medici family,” he says. “It may have been freezing cold, but we felt like we were actually there in 1469.”

Bean tells Broadcast he would happily take on more historical roles, although he concedes “you tend to die in historical drama quite a lot – any programme where you’ve got long hair or are on a horse, you are probably in trouble”. Game Of Thrones fans will know he’s speaking from experience.

Medici season 2: Frank Spotnitz interview ‘the real history is too graphic even for television to show’
We chatted to the Medici co-creator about Sean Bean, historical gore and why he doesn’t expect anybody to care about 15th century bankers
Quote
  It’s a conspiracy thriller, explains Spotnitz, “one of the greatest true life conspiracy thrillers of all time.” If you want to ruin this season for yourself, he says, “go on Wikipedia right now and look it up.”

If you were to do just that, your stomach might be turned by what you read. Put simply, 15th century Italians did not mess about when it came to exacting bloody revenge. The actual story, Spotnitz tells Den Of Geek, was too hot for TV. “If you read the real history of what happened to these people, it’s too graphic I think even for television for now to show.” What you’ll see on screen is “not as gruesome as it was in history.”

The rest of season two, Spotnitz assures, hews far closer to history than its predecessor. Timelines have been compressed to squeeze the action into eight episodes, but far fewer liberties were taken with history this time around. The reason being? “The actual history is so dramatic.”

Medici: The Magnificent is the story of a great rivalry. In the blue corner, young idealist Lorenzo de’ Medici, a banker with a keen sense of social responsibility and one of history’s most influential patrons of the arts (without him and his family, there wouldn’t be Botticelli paintings hanging in the Uffizi today). In the red corner, Jacopo Pazzi, a ruthless and predatory money man with no sense of the value of art. It’s youth vs age, revolution vs establishment, art vs empty materialism.

It’s all of that versus… Sean Bean. After Dustin Hoffman provided the star power in season one, Bean is the casting coup this time around. He plays Jacopo, the antagonist head of the Pazzi family, “he’s the villain but you do have a sympathy for him,” says Spotnitz. In real life, Bean is “very lovely, quiet,” says Spotnitz. “It’s almost a whisper when he speaks to you.” Completely the reverse of his belligerent, scheming character, whose tunnel-vision materialism, Bean told Spotnitz, makes him woeful.

“Dreams matter, stories matter. This is what gives life its richness,” stresses Spotnitz. “For people like the Jacopo Pazzis of the world, it doesn’t. They don’t see the value. Sean talked about this, he finds that tragic. He finds that character tragic because he’s not moved by stories. He’s not moved by art, it’s money and power. That’s a very mean existence. It’s an empty life.”

The first thing that happened when Bean’s role was announced online, Spotnitz laughs, was “Will he die?” After several high-profile early exits in film and TV roles, the longevity of any Sean Bean character has become a talking point among fans. Bean appears in all eight episodes of Medici: The Magnificent, assures Spotnitz. Beyond that, you’ll have to consult Wikipedia.

Not that viewers should have to, Spotnitz tells us. You don’t need to know a thing about Renaissance history to get the most from Medici. He and co-creator Nicholas Meyer (Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) started from the position that nobody would have inherent interest in the period or the historical figures. “You need to know absolutely nothing,” he assures us. “I’m not assuming anybody cares about the Medici the bankers, they’ve been dead for 500 years.”

What viewers will care about, hopefully, are the personal stories. “A son who’s got to take over from his father, or who is in love with a woman but has to marry somebody else because his family demands it.”

‘Medici: The Magnificent’ on Netflix Almost Gives ‘Game of Thrones’ Fans a Stark Family Reunion

One of the many new shows to hit Netflix this weekend technically isn’t new at all. Medici: The Magnificent is actually just a follow up season to Medici: Masters of Florence, a lavish Renaissance drama starring Richard Madden and Dustin Hoffman. The big twist, though, is that this new season takes place a good forty years after the first, and it focuses on the grandchildren of the major players of Medici: Masters of Florence. Let’s break it down…

Medici: Masters of Florence first hit Netflix in late 2016. The series, developed by Man in the High Castle creator Frank Spotnitz, was a lush and dramatic retelling of the early days of the Medici clan’s takeover of Florence. Richard Madden played the dashing Cosimo de’Medici, a young man who has to inherit his intimidating father Giovanni’s empire after the older man’s sudden death in 1429. The show cast Hollywood heavyweight Dustin Hoffman in the role of Giovanni, almost to emphasize how his legacy loomed over Cosimo’s life.

While the series was a minor hit on American Netflix, Medici: Masters of Florence was a massive hit abroad, most notably in Italy. And so, a second series was commissioned, but this one would focus on a far more famous Medici: Lorenzo the Magnificent. Medici: The Magnificent opens in 1470, just as Lorenzo and his siblings are attempting to maintain their family’s hold on Florentine culture. The season deals mainly with the Medici family’s heated war with the Pazzi clan.

Medici: The Magnificent stars Daniel Sharman as Lorenzo de’Medici, Bradley James as his younger brother Giuliano, and Sean Bean as Jacopo de’ Pazzi. The only returning cast member from Medici: Masters of Florence is Annabel Scholey, who plays the older version of her character Contessina.

But let’s circle back to Sean Bean. In a weird twist, the Medici series is giving us an “almost” Game of Thrones reunion. Sean Bean played Ned Stark in the first season of the smash HBO series, and Richard Madden played his eldest son Robb. Madden doesn’t appear in this new season with Bean, but he is credited as an Executive Producer. So maybe Medici is the show where Starks go when they die? We’ll have to wait and see if Michelle Fairley (aka Catelyn Stark) or Art Parkinson (aka Rickon Stark) make an appearance in the upcoming third installment of the Medici series.

The plot of the first episode , entitled "Survival", takes us a few months after the Pazzi Conspiracy, Lorenzo is still animated by the spirit of revenge. There is a long-distance conflict between Lorenzo and Pope Sixtus IV; this conflict tries to take advantage of the cruel Count Riario - the last of the conspirators who remained alive - who tries to start the war between Florence and Rome. While the Medici family learns of the existence of Giulio, the illegitimate son of the deceased Giuliano, a Dominican friar arrives in Florence who seems able to read in the heart of Lorenzo: Girolamo Savonarola.

C.A.M. has released a soundtrack album for the Italian/British TV series Medici. The album features the selections of the show’s original music composed by Paolo Buonvino (Fathers & Daughters, Romanzo Criminale, Quiet Chaos), including Buonvino’s & Skin’s Season 1 opening theme Renaissance and their Season 2 & 3 theme song Revolution Bones.

Medici is created by Frank Spotnitz & Nicholas Meyer and stars Richard Madden, Stuart Martin, Annabel Scholey & Dustin Hoffman (Season 1) and Daniel Sharman, Bradley James, Sarah Parish, Alessandra Mastronard & Sean Bean (Season 2 & 3). The series is set in 15th-century Renaissance Florence and centers on the visionary Medici dynasty as it flexes its power in politics and the arts, risking its rivals’ lethal opposition. The show’s third and final season premiered earlier this month in Italy in RAI 1 and the drama’s first two seasons are now available to stream on Netflix.
