The story will follow the life of the insatiably curious and headstrong inventor Leonardo da Vinci (Fry) as he leaves Italy to join the French court, where he can experiment freely, inventing flying contraptions, incredible machines, and studying the human body. There, joined by the princess Marguerite (Ridley), he looks to answer the ultimate question — what is the meaning of it all?
“We are making this film for children and the child in many adults. It has action, adventure, beauty and humor,” Capobianco and producer Robert Rippberger said in a statement carried by Deadline “We hope it will spark curiosity in its young audience and inspire girls and boys to become the Leonardo’s of the 21st century.”
Exploring the galaxy since 1978, Mark wrote his first fan fiction in 1981 and been a presence online since his first webpage Fanta War in 1996. He currently contributes to Star Wars Insider, ILM.com and SkywalkerSound.com, having previously written for StarWars.com, Star Wars Encyclopedia, Build The Millennium Falcon, Starburst Magazine, Geeky Monkey, TV Film Memorabilia and Model and Collectors Mart.
