Netflix canceled Marco Polo after its second season run in 2016 and talks of a possible season 3 renewal on other networks or platforms have never panned out. Most of the cast of this period drama have also moved on to different projects on television.
So, where can fans of Marco Polo find the stars and their new shows? Below is a rundown of the cast and their latest work.
Lorenzo Richelmy (as Marco Polo) has signed up in the ABC pilot Triangle as of March 2019, according to Deadline. He'll play the title role of Ham, a former pirate, in the mystery drama about the inhabitants of the Bermuda Triangle. The show has no premiere date so far as it will start with production.
Benedict Wong (as Kublai Khan) is currently in the first season of the Syfy fantasy series Deadly Class. He's Master Lin, the headmaster of the Dominion Atelier of the Deadly Arts, who trains teenagers and children of criminals to become assassins.
"You've got these kids that are going through their teenage year, but they're also killers as well," Wong said of his new show and character in an interview with Syfy Wire. "So, when they're sort of stamping around each other, with Lin and this omnipresent that you're not allowed to kill each other, it kind of makes some sort of palpable drama I think."
Remy Hii (as Prince Jingim) has boarded the Jane the Virgin spinoff Jane the Novella. The actor will play the role of Luen, the boyfriend of the lead star Jacqueline Grace Lopez, as per Vulture. The spinoff series is based on the books that Gina Rodriguez's character published in the series. Rodriguez will also be behind the show as its executive producer. Hii also starred in shows like Sisters and Harrow. Both programs air in Australia, but Harrow is available on Hulu.
Olivia Cheng (as Mei Lin) is also on Deadly Class with Wong. She plays one of the teachers, Master Gao. The Canadian star is also a series regular the newly-released show Warrior, which is also a period drama about a Martial Arts prodigy who resembles Bruce Lee in many ways. Warrior airs on Cinemax.
Claudia Kim (as Khutulun) was in the South Korean drama series Monster, which aired in 2016. These days, the actress has been busy working in movies. She plays a significant character in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.
Lastly, Uli Latukefu (as Byamba) was also in Harrow with Hii. Viewers in Australia may also watch him in his new show, the medical drama The End.
