Hannibal

Korean Promo For Hannibal Is the Weirdest, Best, Most Inappropriately Sparkle-Filled Promo Of All Time [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 2:25 pm, May 13th, 2013

You don’t need to watch Hannibal to appreciate the sheer WTFery of this Korean promo. As long as you know that the show itself is a violent, intense drama about a serial killer cannibal, the fact that this video has anime sparkles, floating hearts, an excited voiceover, and the main character’s head photoshopped on… a Korean pop star? I don’t even know… should strike you as appropriately weird.

A partial English transcription is here. At one point Hannibal apparently says “HEHEHE I’LL HELP YOU HIDE THE BODYYYY <3."

Bryan Fuller On a Possible Pushing Daisies Reunion in Hannibal, Doing a Pushing Daisies Zombie Movie

by Rebecca Pahle | 4:00 pm, May 5th, 2013

First things first, to those not watching NBC’s Hannibal: Watch Hannibal. The acting’s great, the characters are wonderful, and it’s insanely fun seeing the writers play with the fact that the audience knows Hannibal Lecter’s a killer cannibal but the characters don’t. (Said at a dinner meeting: “Next time bring your wife. I’d love to have you both for dinner.” Oh-ho-ho!)

Another reason to catch up on Hannibal, at least if you’re a Pushing Daisies fan: Some combination of Lee Pace, Kristin Chenoweth, and Anna Friel might join its cast in season two. If it gets a season two. C’mon, people. Let’s make this the Bryan Fuller show that lasts.

Hannibal Has a Pretty Intense Trailer, Guys

by Susana Polo | 1:16 pm, March 1st, 2013

It shows no hint of Gillian Anderson or Gina Torres, who have both been cast in the show, with Andersen making her first appearance on American television in more than ten years. But we can’t fault it too much. After all it still looks very promising, and we know they’ll be in the show somewhere. It’s very interesting to see hints of the same design style as Pushing Daisies, but with the tonal gamma turned way, way down.

And So It Begins

Mads Mikkelsen Makes for One Creepy Serial Killer in the First Trailer for NBC’s Hannibal [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 6:00 pm, February 17th, 2013

Here’s the first teaser for Bryan Fuller‘s Hannibal, starring Mads Mikkelsen as the eponymous serial killer/cannibal. It looks quite a bit different from Fuller’s previous TV shows… not a drop of whimsy to be found. That said, it still looks good. Plus, Mikkelsen is just generally excellent in everything. (No one mention Clash of the Titans or Paul W.S. Anderson‘s steampunk The Three Musketeers. We don’t talk about those.)

Bryan Fuller’s Mockingbird Lane is Officially No More

by Susana Polo | 4:11 pm, December 28th, 2012

Fans of lavishly designed, quirky, pseudo-fantastical Bryan Fuller productions have been expecting this for a long time. According to the showrunner’s twitter, NBC has officially and finally passed on the ambitous remake of The Munsters.

and let it be known

Gillian Anderson is Hannibal Lecter’s Therapist

by Susana Polo | 11:04 am, December 13th, 2012

Gillian Anderson has spent a long time away from American television. Her roles since The X-Files have included Miss Havisham and the Duchess of Windsor, and she’ll always have a place in my heart for subbing the voice of Moro, San’s adoptive-wolf-spirit-mother in Princess Mononoke, but the fact remains that she hasn’t had a role this side of the pond since 2008′s The X-Files: I Want to Believe, and hasn’t graced our small screens since 2002.

But if there already weren’t enough reasons to be interested in a series about Hannibal Lecter from the guy behind Pushing Daisies, Gillian Anderson joining the show is a nice addition.

Just What You've Always Wanted

Gina Torres Joins the Cast of Bryan Fuller’s Hannibal. Heck. Yes.

by Rebecca Pahle | 4:15 pm, October 17th, 2012

Just as my sense of hope around Bryan Fuller’s The Munsters reboot dies, my anticipation of his next show, Hannibal, rises. The NBC series will focus on a pre-imprisonment Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen) and his protege, FBI agent Will Graham (Hugh Dancy), with Laurence Fishburne playing the man responsible for hunting Lecter down.

And now we have a new cast member: Gina Torres.

Thank you, Bryan Fuller. Just… thank you.
