“For me, I understood – because I’m obsessed with both of these artists – that Hannibal was going to be a juxtaposition of the artistic styles of Francis Bacon, against Edward Hopper. That really was the informing vision for the show.” – Bryan Fuller [x]
I would say 90% of Hannibal’s suits were bespoke, and there’s a
fantastic tailor in Toronto who built all of them. He’s so shockingly
good. He came in and measured me once and then made me a Hannibal suit,
and it fit so perfectly… better than any suit I have ever put on my
body.
So we had these great tailors in Toronto building suits from scratch for
Mads Mikkelsen and my edict for him was, three-piece plaid suits. That
was going to be the main voice because I wanted it to be flashy enough
for the devil to get his due, yet refined enough that he is able to move
amongst us with his peacock feathers
I love to dress up. I love to put on a suit
but I don’t wear a suit every day. Generally I like to wear nice clothes
but I think when I start directing I’ll be one of those directors who
wears a suit every day. (x)
Can you feel the love tonight? First time I’m drawing Hannibal and Will REALLY kissing each other. Inspired by The Wrath of the Lamb, this pencil sketch is a sort of “what if?”: what would have happened if Francis Dolarhyde broke in just five minutes later? This is one of the countless possibilities. And it’s available for purchase!

Hannibal Lecter + some character traits (good and bad and things in between)
bonus:
“Hannibal can get lost in self-congratulation.” —- if that’s not smug, I don’t know what is😂
With all of that at once on display it is very easy to imagine Will Graham’s urge to kill Doctor Hannibal Lecter. Its both enchanting and exasperating.
Imagine how pleasant was to kill Randall Tier with bare hands seeing Hannibal instead of him. Beating that smug expression off his face. That must be truly delightful illusion. (I’m still on 2 season rewatch yep)
