I feel that Marco Polo has really been misrepresented - has never really gotten his due.

I feel so lucky that I have gotten to do what I have gotten to do.

I think sadly that Morse thinks that he can exist on his own and he only realises at the end that he can't and never really has been able to. I feel sorry for him.

It all goes back to 'Wow, I never knew this about Marco Polo.' This is an incredible story and an incredible character, and such a rich world of Mongolian and Chinese culture.

We're not just making 'Marco Polo,' we're living it. Because we traveled to Venice... Kazakhstan... into the jungles of Malaysia.

Sometimes, I feel that Manhattan in particular has gotten really tame and gentrified or something.
