Returning: Hannibal

Season 2 of Hannibal will have its Australian Premiere on FOX8 next Sunday night.

The series was recently renewed for a third season.

Before “Silence of the Lambs,” before “Red Dragon,” Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen) was a brilliant psychiatrist in the employ of the FBI. His task: to help a gifted criminal profiler, Will Graham (Hugh Dancy) who is haunted by his ability to see into the minds of serial killers. Season two picks up as Will Graham finds himself housed in the place he feared most, the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, after Dr. Hannibal Lecter successfully framed his “friend” for the murders he had committed as the copycat.

Sundays from May 25 at 8.30pm FOX8.
