During an interview with Rtl 102.5, in fact, the CEO of Lux Vude Luca Bernabei explained that the miniseries broadcast by Raiuno, created by Frank Spotnitz and Steve Thompson and starring Aidan Turner, will have a second season. “He will tell about a secret Leonardo in Rome” Bernabei said, ready to respond even to those who criticized the series for not being too close to historical truth.

«We didn’t invent that much, we created the story of the murder which, however, serves because through this accusation we explore the mind and soul of Leonardo: it is a narrative device.
