Hannibal: Bryan Fuller and Hugh Dancy Talk Network Censors, Season 4 and More in 90-Minute Interview

  • One of my favorite series of the past decade is Bryan Fuller’s Hannibal. The amazing TV show was adapted from the Thomas Harris books with Mads Mikkelsen playing serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecter and Hugh Dancy playing FBI special investigator Will Graham. While most shows are easy to describe and fit neatly into a box like a procedural, sitcom, or drama, over the course of the three seasons it aired on NBC, Hannibal consistently defied expectations and did things I never thought you could do on network TV. By the time NBC started airing season three, I thought I was watching a cable series that someone managed to get by the network censors. While the past decade has seen many incredible achievements on the small screen, if you’ve never seen Hannibal, I promise it’s absolutely worth your time.
    With the entire series now streaming on Netflix, I recently landed an extended and exclusive interview with Bryan Fuller and Hugh Dancy. During our ninety-minute conversation, the two started by answering a few fun questions like first crushes, favorite rides at Disneyland, and TV series they’d like to guest star on/guest write. Soon after we jumped into Hannibal and they shared so many great behind-the-scenes stories it would be impossible to list it all here. But if you’re curious what it was like writing the series, casting Mads Mikkelsen, why Clarice and The Silence of the Lambs storyline was never on the show, who David Bowie would have played, which gory event was blocked by NBC’s standards and practices, and Dancy revealing the unbelievable thing he can’t believe they got away with on Hannibal, you’re in the right place.
    Trust me, if you’re a fan of Hannibal, you’re going to love hearing what they had to say.

    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
      @joebrown6778 4 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      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
      @andikaputri2625 4 ปีที่แล้ว +48

      @dabearslive9605 4 ปีที่แล้ว +49

      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.

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.

    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.

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!

    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.

    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.

    One of the thing I knew from Hannibal cast is, their cast is amazing also is the director, 'cuz how can the fandom of the series story keeps going for many years after the end of last season fans still desire to see it and hope that one day they will get to see it happen again. But for some reason I think that going with the concept of the tv show only takes a lot of risk, I think the income and attention of people for the story should keep flowing regularly, right now it's not, the more attention and income they can keep them going steadily the more the story can keep going even after time pass
    So right now they should start to get more of people's attention for real.
