Netflix has premiered the first trailer for their latest binge watch, television series, that being “Marco Polo” courtesy of The Weinstein Co. and directors Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg (Kon-Tiki, Pirates of the Caribbean 5) stepping in to helm the first few episodes.
The show tells the story, obviously, of explorer Marco Polo (Lorenzo Richelmy) as he navigates the inner court of 13th century ruler, Kublai Khan. From the back alleys of Venice to the perilous Silk Road, from the opulence of the Imperial City to the battlefields of China, “Marco Polo” is an epic action-adventure, where cultures clash, blood is spilled, and lies are told. Chin Han and Rick Yune co-star in what promises to be a blood and sex-filled, epic with plenty of battles to sate your desires while “Game of Thrones” is off the air.
This first season carries a reported budget around $90 million and will premiere on December 12. Give the teaser a watch below.
