Hannibal TV show trailer

While the initial announcement of a Hannibal Lecter TV show might have caused a bit of scepticism (we're still sore from Hannibal Rising), our position has been gradually changing.

Thanks to a top-notch cast (Hugh Dancy, Mads Mikkelson, Laurence Fishburne and Gillian Anderson) and an intriguing premise, we were starting to think it might be a good idea. And now the trailer is here. And now we think it's a great idea.

Showing a pleasingly dark tone and flashes of what promises to be a fantastic turn from Mikkelson as the deranged killer, we're fully on-board.

What do you think?

Hannibal premieres in the US in April and a UK date is yet to be confirmed
