David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight Trilogy,
Man of Steel, “Da Vinci’s Demons”)
and Jonathan E. Steinberg (“Jericho,” “Human Target,” “Black Sails”)
to present their Starz Original Series at
New York Comic Con 2013
Starz will present three of its upcoming series at a panel on Friday, October 11, 2013 during New York Comic Com including the Ronald
D. Moore executive produced, highly anticipated new series “Outlander,” based on
The New York Times bestselling novels penned by Diana Gabaldon;
season two of the David S. Goyer historical adventure “Da Vinci’s
Demons” and the much awaited pirate drama “Black Sails” from the mind of
Jonathan E. Steinberg, executive produced by Michael
Bay.
“Black
Sails” had its first debut at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2013 where
fans were given a sneak peek at the first episode. The
series was extremely well received and is sure to be welcomed by the
masses following its January premiere. After a successful first season,
“Da Vinci’s Demons” returns with all new twists and betrayal. This will
be the first presence for “Outlander,” a series
based on a book whose fans wait with bated breath to see how Jamie and
Claire’s tale will be brought to the small screen.
Steven Smith of MTV Geek and popular iTunes podcast “Going Off Track” will moderate the panel.
Smith previously hosted Fuse’s
IMX, the network’s first live music/talent interview show, which became
Daily Download. Following Download, Smith was awarded his own daily program:
Steven’s Untitled Rock Show, which ran an amazing 700 episodes.
ABOUT
“Outlander”
The
“Outlander” series spans the genres of romance, science fiction,
history, and adventure in one grandiose tale. It follows the story of
Claire
Randall, a married combat nurse from 1945 who is mysteriously swept
back in time to 1743, where she is immediately thrown into an unknown
world where her life is threatened. When she is forced to marry Jamie
Fraser, a chivalrous and romantic young Scottish
warrior, a passionate affair is ignited that tears Claire’s heart
between two vastly different men in two irreconcilable lives.
“Da Vinci’s Demons” Season Two
Florence
is thrown into chaos in the wake of the Pazzi conspiracy, so Leonardo
da Vinci pushes the limits of his mind and body to
defend the city against the forces of Rome. When the dust settles,
friends are buried and rivalries enflamed. While the Medicis go to
unthinkable lengths to deal with new threats, da Vinci continues on his
quest to find the fabled Book of Leaves and uncover
the secret history of his mother. He'll come to realize that he has
lethal competition in his quest -- new enemies who may be even worse
than the forces of Pope Sixtus. His search will take him to faraway
lands and force him to reevaluate everything he knew
about the world and his own history.
“Black Sails”
The pirate adventure “Black Sails” centers on the tales of Captain Flint and his men and takes place twenty years
prior to Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic
“Treasure Island.” Flint, the most brilliant and most feared pirate
captain of his day, takes on a fast-talking young addition to his crew
who goes by the name John Silver. Threatened with extinction on all
sides, they fight for the survival of New Providence
Island, the most notorious criminal haven of its day – a debauched
paradise teeming with pirates, prostitutes, thieves and fortune seekers,
a place defined by both its enlightened ideals and its stunning
brutality.
“Black Sails” will debut with an eight-episode season in January 2014, exclusively on STARZ.
