I heard he doesn't want the fans to pay for it or ask for money and I agree. I mean, I know people mean well but I think that's a bit much and Im honestly hopeful that Netflix is going to make a fourth season.

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

Mads Mikkelsen was absolutely amazing in this role. He actually topped what Sir Anthony Hopkins did. Very book accurate and completely unique at the same time. Mads is Hannibal Lecter now, at least for me. That is how I imagine him 🙌

[@joebrown6778]

Mads had to grow on me, but Hopkins tops him. Don't get me wrong I very much enjoyed Mads portrayal by season 2, but he's a bit stiff in his charm. He's a high end marble as opposed to Hopkins' silk. Hopkins was just effortless, he could switch between charming and terrifying so fast....the dead eyes of a shark, the smile of a wolf. Different strokes and all, but c'mon...Hopkins IS Hannibal.

[@andikaputri2625]

TOTALLY AGREE! IMO Mads is the closest Hannibal to the book and that's just how I always imagine him to be! ❤

[@dabearslive9605]

Joe Brown disagree bud. I would actually take most of your assessment of Hopkins and apply it to Mads IMO. And I am someone who was expecting to hate the show going into it, because I grew up watching Silence of the Lambs all the time, and could not bring myself to see anyone else as Lecter. But it just happened lol. I respect it though, I still love Hopkins, they are almost neck and neck to me.

[@joebrown6778]

@@dabearslive9605 Fair deal. At least we started on the same path lol. I was skeptical to say the least of Mads when I started...but he eventually opened up a bit towards the end of season 1 for me and something did click. I do see what you do. I just prefer my Hopkins. But internet discussions always end in respectful disagreements, far be it from us to break that hotstreak now.

[@dabearslive9605]

Joe Brown haha I’ve gotten into some arguments with people online about various things (which is always pointless and regrettable), but keeping it respectable is always the best thing. Like I said, I love Hopkins Lecter. Good to have a honest disagreement without hurling insults

[@valeriyav2149]

NBC didn't want a European actor to portray a European character. Wow, a very American approach. Anyway, Mads was truly a gift in any sense of the word. He became the epitome of elegance the creators chose as the main visual concept in terms of appearance, charisma and his micro expressive acting. I can't say that John Cusack or Hugh Grant possess the same energy when acting. Cusack is kinda forgettable for me, even though he's not a bad actor and was in many good projects, he just doesn't leave a lasting impression, which can be ok for some characters but not for Hannibal. Hugh Grant is memorable and his recent choices of roles only prove it, but his look and his acting just don't fit Hannibal. Some of the scenes would look plain comical or creepy. Not to mention, we wouldn't get such mind-blowing chemistry we got with Hugh and Mads, which is the strongest point in the show imo.

[@parasitegirl6770]

Mads and hugh are just perfect for the roles tbh.

[@lnfreeman]

I mean, Cox and Hopkins both played American (accents at least) for their portrayals of Hannibal, I'll bet NBC didn't even realize the character was European.

[@nantiabolotaeva2594]

There are certain murder scenes that were creepy, and hard to look at it! But Mads was an absolutely wonderful choice for Hannibal. Also the thing that NBC did not really do their research on Mads credentials, he is absolutely talented. The angle he brought to Hannibal is absolutely fascinating

[@andikaputri2625]

TRUE! This is why I don't understand NBC at all Mads is definitely the perfect choice for the role of Hannibal and he really gave the best he could

Mads is such an exceptional actor. I was absolutely enthralled with his performance as hannibal. He completely and utterly encapulated every single intricate detail of hannibals complex, psychological landscape. An absolute gem! Hugh dacy as will graham was also another outstanding choice! He presented the internal conflict of his character in such subtle but memorable nuances that left me completely invested in his characters development. Together these twos chemistry went beyond the simple and typical rules of romance and attraction. Two highly intellient individuals seeking a higher level of psychological understanding that couldnt be ascertained by others. Truly two very remarkable characters that i would give anything to see them grace our screens again! sorry for the long essay but it had to said hahaha

@@Stephaniacat David Fincher directing something Bryan's had his hand in either co-writing or co-plotting more likely, with Trent Reznor working with Brian Reitzell to create not only the soundtrack but the *sound* of the movie, Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen as part of the cast of course (my short list lol, indulge me; Oscar Issac, Lupita Nyong'o, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Ellis, Thandie Newton, J. K. Simmons, Kate Siegel, David Tenent, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Evan Peters, Elizabeth Olsen, Regina King, Stanley Touchi, Harrington, Freddie Highmore, Noah Wyle, Pedro Pascal, Mahershala Ali, Kathy Bates, Peter Capaldi, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Sandra Oh, Taika Waititi, Violet McGraw, Finn Wolfhard, Giancarlo Esposito, John Krasinski...) with a touch of the color scheme of a classic Fincher movie pallete but a little more modern Eurphoria feel to it, with the time bending of The Haunting of Hill House meets The Witcher, and it to be either a series or a movie on a platform that let's the wildly creative sides of the production come to life....

One of the fascinating aspects of them speculatively putting Will on the spectrum is that recent research findings in high functioning autism, specifically what would formerly have been classified as Aspergers, have found that rather than having deficits in emotional empathy as had been believed, there is actually a hyper intensity of empathy that the individual struggle with trying to separate their emotional experiences with those of others, which creates the need for the social withdrawal that is typical of those on the spectrum.

My goodness, NBC's Hannibal is one of the best shows ever made. I don't think they realize how lucky they got: with having Bryan Fuller on board and such splendid cast. People still talk about this show years after it ended, which is a huge complement in itself, but also, there are so many shows being produced that are so bad... Quantity over quality, that's what it is. And this is also another reason to just respect any director's autonomy: the really good ones KNOW what they are doing... Same with Dune; I'm so glad Villeneuve just had a vision and didn't allow anyone to mess with his vision of how Dune should look like.

And she didn’t even watch it in English (which I think takes away from the experience quite a bit).

Still hoping for a continuation of the story. Interviews like this really help fill the season 4 void tho 🙌

I am straight, but love Bryan Fuller as an artist creative spirit and the whole cast of Hannibal and Scott Thompson's Post Mortem aftershow. Just an amazing show and production that deserved more seasons. Just the Symphony of Slaughter short documentary blew me away. Details mattered to this wonderful recipe of a show and vision that feels unmatched for network TV or hundreds of multi million dollar production movies.

I've been watching hannibal non-stop with another friend. There's a need for a season 4 and more. Fix it Jesus!. This is an excellent interview from the start.

[@bertiebrown581]

I loved this series like the day is long, and never missed a chance to recommend it while it was on. I’m so glad it’s on Netflix now so I can recommend it to even more people. If Netflix greenlit another season I would lose my entire mind.

I just finished season 3 and then found this video. Hannibal is a literal work of art that no one has experienced before. If you think you're watching a tv show about a guy who just eats people, you're very mistaken- it is far..far more then that. Give it a chance, stick with it till the end. I still have goosebumps from the final scene and it's been over for an hour. Part of me truly wants a season 4 and the other part of me wants to imagine the beauty the could be on my own. I guess only time will tell which one we get.

[@drfannibal6826]

I want more seasons :(

[@mulhollandfam4840]

Thank you for this! Absolutely fabulous, high quality interview with two of my favorite artists - may they be reunited very soon!

[@solar.1a]

I am dying for season 4, this tv show is so underrated wtffffff???

[@operationada]

this guy and his fun questions, I LOVE IT. Thank you for being different!

i miss them so much.. thanks for the enjoyable conversation! :) fingers crossed for another season, i don't think i've watched any other show like 5 times :D

[@JimmyKlef]

Thanks for asking about the music. I absolutely love scores and Hannibals is absolutely incredible. I am a music maker myself and my absolute dream job would be to make the music and sound design for this show. In the opening credits, I swear they use the sound of a sizzling fry pan weaving in and out. There are so many things like that... the chimes when alana falls through the window... there was some stuff that reminded me of the clatter type sounds in the shining. Exactly what I would love to, and do love to do.

I just finish watching hannibal and gosh the ending left me in awe! :0 I really hope the show gets back on and be a season 4! 😭❤❤❤ I really enjoyed it! I'll maybe watch it again ;-;

[@buriedinthearchives]

I'm just amazed by how caring and honest they both are. Also, I just want to raid Bryan's closet, that zip up is stellar!

[@thatcookie4984]

Hugh’s face when Bryan said the fake corpse was incredibly lifelike to the touch 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 stop you silly man 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@loganwall7520]

It's 2-minutes for a movie, but for a series it's a full episode to count for viewership.

[@Asian_Caleb]

I am SO addicted to this show it’s absolutely genius

[@kristimcgowandarkoscellard3126]

I absolutely adore Hugh and I am a huge Hannibal fan!! When it comes to the show, I was late to the party, only discovering the show when it was released on Amazon Prime! Boy was I mad at myself for not having watched this masterpiece of a show sooner!!!! The reason I didn’t watch it when it was originally on NBC was because I had seen all the films and read all the books many times. At the time I could not imagine that anyone could top those, let alone actually make something better!!! I suspect many people felt the same as I did and that was the cause of the low ratings. Never have I been so happy to be wrong about something!!! Honestly I have seen all 3 seasons 5 times now and still discover new things I missed each time!! Having watched each episode so many times and also having been a fan of The Path, it always shocks me when I watch an interview with Hugh and hear that English accent! 😱 Actually I think it makes him even more adorable!! Thank you Hugh, Bryan and all the cast members for making this small screen masterpiece!!! If I could have one thing before I die, it would be a season 4 of the show!!!! 🙏🏻 This was an excellent interview and I thank you all for it!!!!! Cheers

[@emanueldesousa77]

Love Hannibal Netflix show, I’ve seen it 5 times already. And it’s on my constant viewing list. Beautiful series!

[@thalia9789]

Great interview! You asked very interesting questions. It's always nice to see Hugh and Bryan, I love their energy!

[@Iron_Stigmata]

That McDonald's shooting script sounds like a crackfic 😭😭. I'm constantly impressed every time I sit down to rewatch Hannibal. I just adore it. Hannibal and Mr Robot are my two favourite shows, neither of which got the hype they deserved. At least Mr Robot got to end on its own terms D:

[@stephcinema]

Omg I love both of these shows, I completely agree that they are both so overrated!! (Sorry I just noticed how old the comment is)

[@stateyourthesis]

Finished the show a day a go and I am already re watching. Though I sometimes stop playing the episode to just google things about the show. Honestly that's the best part of watching a great show, I can never wait until all is revealed and I get to finally look up speculations and interviews. I just realize how absorbed in this show I was. I didn't notice Hugh was British. I usually can tell when an actor is British playing as an American. The corners of their mouth curls.

[@adamkoyn792]

Lol @ Bryan Fuller's shirt. What a boss.

[@underneaththemoon292]

I'm so glad this show exists because damn what a piece

[@andikaputri2625]

I LOVE THIS INTERVIEW SO MUCH WITH ALL MY HEART I'M CRYING SO HARD

[@annala2956]

Thank you for this! I just finished watching Hannibal. I didn't watch it when on NBC because a) I didn't think a regular Network would make it as it should be (I was wrong) and b) I thought it just focused on the one book Hannibal and then spun from there. I had no idea Will Graham was a character. Manhunter is one of my top 5 favorite movies. BTW - I'm so glad John Cusack and Hugh Grant said "no".

[@mikemapu]

Amazing interview! I really love that you took the time to ask them simple things like favorite Disney ride, classic movie, etc. Those answers really give a feel for a person, I think, in ways that you wouldn't expect. And of course, all of the Hannibal content was exceptional. Love this interviewer!
