"Marco Polo" Season 3 from Netflix and creator John Fusco will see Kublai Khan (Benedict Wong) and Marco Polo (Lorenzo Richelmy) face a supernatural villain. As it is "Marco Polo" will barely give Kublai Khan and Marco time to breathe from the events of the Season 2 finale "The Fellowship."
Fans of the Netflix series would remember that "Marco Polo" Season 2 finale brought the tragic end to imposter Blue Princess, Kokachin, (Zhu Zhu). Empress Chabi (Joan Chen), showed her true colors in the "Marco Polo" Season 2 finale with this key scene.

The unfortunate Kaidu (Rick Yune) paid with his life for discovering too late in "Marco Polo" Season 2 such reserve of strength as Empress Chabi and Kublai Khan possess. It did not hurt, either, that when Kaidu made his move to kill Kublai Khan, Marco Polo came to the rescue.

Interestingly, help was not the only thing Marco Polo brought Kublai Khan in this meeting at the Season 2 finale. Marco Polo also told Kublai Khan about the advancing enemy, whom they will both face in Season 3.
The Wrap recalls the official introduction of Prester John in "The Fellowship" as a thorn on the side for Kublai Khan and Marco Polo. To be sure, the bloody staff of Prester John firmly planted into the ground of the empty Mongol Camp in Xanadu is a loud challenge against Kublai Khan.
Worryingly, Kublai Khan and Marco Polo will find a dangerous enemy in Prester John. According to The Wrap Niccolò Polo (Pierfrancesco Favino), Nayan (Ron Yuan) and Pope Gregory X (Gabriel Byrne) spoke about Prester John in "Marco Polo" Season 2 Episode 4 with reference to the supernatural.
"Marco Polo" Season 3 will pit Kublai Khan and Marco Polo against ruthless villain and Magi descendant Prester John. The bone of contention in this conflict between Kublai Khan and Prester John will be explored when "Marco Polo" returns.
Netflix is anticipated to confirm the highly rated "Marco Polo" for Season 3. Which side are you taking between Prester John and Kublai Khan in "Marco Polo" Season?
