A prequel to Hannibal Lector's life as an outed cannibal is in development by French-based Gaumont. The series will follow Dr. Lector and his relationship with the protagonist of the book/film Red Dragon, Will Graham, and his different cases of serial killers. Fans of Sir Anthony Hopkins will be dissapointed, as, similar to Hannibal Rising, this Lector will be a younger version.
As a personal fan of the Hannibal Lector storyline in both film and books, this will be an interesting endevour. Hannibal Rising was a bit of a joke, so I hope that the television series will be able to make up for the lack of Hopkins, who basically made the film series.
I feel that a televsision series about Hannibal Leactor's life is a great idea! Personally, I would enjoy more television shows about serial killers. It's fun and interesting. Shows these days are practically all the same and the only shows about serial killers are on what they do, not particulary how they act. I have great hope for this series.

I can't wait till this show comes out. I watched the movie Silence of The Lambs about 12 times. I like that it will be a prequel to Silence of The Lambs, because now we can see how Hannibal became Hannibal The Cannibal. I just hope it will be just as suspensefull and exciting as the movies.
