A brand new series is set to come to Netflix on December 12 for its Season 1 debut. 'Marco Polo' created by John Fusco will feature many recognizable actors that will surely spark up a fan base for the new show.

On that note, a recently release trailer for the new series has been launched by the production team, and by the looks of it, many fans are already gearing up to tune in next month.

Check out the trailer for 'Marco Polo' on Netflix below:

For those that may not know, the show's first season will consist of 10 episodes and will star Lorenzo Richelmy as Marco. The show is based off some of the historical events of the Italian figure, Marco Polo.

Other familiar actors that have been cast on the show include Zhu Zhu ('Cloud Atlas'), Joan Chen ('Twin Peaks') and Benedict Wong ('Prometheus'). Also, Remy Hii, Olivia Cheng, Claudia Kim, Uli Latukefu, Chin Han and Tom Wu will appear in the series.

Beyond the cast of characters, the show's producers are not new to the TV series scene in the slightest. Joining John Fusco are Harvey Weinstein and Dan Minahan, of 'Game of Thrones' and 'True Blood' fame.

On a side note, 'Marco Polo' was not originally intended to be developed back in 2012, however, due some production issues, the show flunked with the attempts to film it in China.

According to IMDb, the official plot synopsis for the series reads, "In a world replete with greed, betrayal, sexual intrigue and rivalry, 'Marco Polo' is based on the famed explorer's adventures in Kublai Khan's court in 13th century China."
