Poldark star Aidan Turner has made his bow as Leonardo Da Vinci in a trailer for the 2021 series Leonardo.
The clip was released to mark the artist and inventor's birth in April 1452.
US entertainment website Deadline reports that the series' co-creator Frank Spotnitz said: "It's both a challenge and an honour to dramatise the life of one of the most fascinating people who ever lived.
"Leonardo is constantly surprising, and despite his fame remains an enigma more than 500 years after his death. We've uncovered sometimes little-noticed clues about Leonardo's life and pieced them together in a puzzle that attempts to reveal the humanity behind the genius."
