Check Out The First Images From NBC’s “Hannibal”

“Hannibal” is one of my most anticipated television projects – to watch- coming out. Hannibal Lecter is the embodiment of the superior serial killer. “Maneater” –the original film that kicked off the Lecter story from the novel is an awesome film even though “Silence” gets most of the cred for Hannibal’s infamy. Anyway check out the cool first images from the NBC show below.
One of the most fascinating literary characters comes to life on television for the first time: psychiatrist-turned-serial-killer, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. In this new drama from Bryan Fuller, based on the characters from Thomas Harris’ classic novels, we see where this incredible story began.

Will Graham is a gifted criminal profiler who is on the hunt for a serial killer with the FBI. Graham’s unique way of thinking gives him the astonishing ability to empathize with anyone – even psychopaths. He seems to know what makes them tick. But when the mind of the twisted killer he’s pursuing is too complicated for even Will to comprehend, he enlists the help of Dr. Lecter, one of the premier psychiatric minds in the country. Armed with the uncanny expertise of the brilliant doctor, Will and Hannibal (known as a serial killer only to the audience) form a brilliant partnership and it seems there’s no villain they can’t catch. If Will only knew…

Starring brilliant young actor Hugh Dancy as Will Graham, HANNIBAL will breathe new life into a deadly classic.
