Trailer: Hannibal & UK air date

April 16, 2013 - Staff@seenituk

sky_logoHannibal, the TV series based on Thomas Harris’ novel Red Dragon, comes to UK screens next month.

The series will screen exclusively on Sky Living HD from May 7th and will also be available via Sky’s On Demand service May 1st.

Mads Mikkelson plays psychiatrist Dr. Hannibal Lecter, tasked by the FBI with helping criminal profiler, Will Graham (Hugh Dancy), who is haunted by his ability to see into the minds of serial killers.

The 13-part series is described as “a taut cat-and-mouse” psychological thriller and has beed developed by Bryan Fuller, the force behind Pushing Daisies, Wonderfalls, and Dead Like Me.
 
After a particularly gruelling case hunting a serial killer known as the Minnesota Shrike, Will Graham threatens to walk away.

Jack Crawford (Lawrence Fishburne), head of the FBI’s Behavioural Science Unit, desperately needs Will on his team to break the tough cases, so he enlists Dr. Hannibal Lecter, to ensure Will’s mental well-being.

Unbeknownst to Will, Hannibal also has a particular insight into these horrible crimes and the psychopaths who commit them. As Will hunts down brutal killers, he is unknowingly sitting across from the most gifted killer of them all.
 


Supporting roles in the series include Gillian Anderson as Lecter’s therapist and Eddie Izzard who will play an inmate at the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, the very same facility where Lecter is eventually incarcerated.
