Fuller broke the news of the series premiere date on Twitter, writing: "#Hannibal requests the honour of your presence for dinner Thursday April 4 10PM @NBC -- Saving you a place at the table."

Fuller also revealed that Eddie Izzard has been on set, posting a picture of the two together and writing: "Always hungry for more @eddieizzard on #HANNIBAL - here we plot our next course."

Izzard will reportedly play an asylum inmate who claims that he is an infamous serial killer.

The show will explore the early relationship between Dr Hannibal Lecter and a criminal profiler, special agent Will Graham.

Lecter will be played by Casino Royale star Mads Mikkelsen, with Hugh Dancy (The Big C) in the role of the Agent Graham. Caroline Dhavernas (Devil), Lara Jean Chorostecki (Copper) and Laurence Fishburne (The Matrix) also feature in the series.

Fuller is an executive producer on the thriller, along with Martha De Laurentiis, Katie O'Connell, Sara Colleton and Jesse Alexander.

Really enjoyed the first episode.

I thought it had quite a strong 'Dexter' feel to it, something quite dark, violent, but a very likeable side to it.

The pathologist is a very interesting character, looking forward to seeing his personality develop some more.

Cant wait for the next episode.

Same. Initially I thought it was going to be one of those Law and Order, NCIS type shows, where every week there's a new victim and boring people in lab coats explaining what happened etc. But it's not! To fully enjoy the show, I feel that you have to detach it completely from the movies and think of it as a completely new storyline and entity in itself. I do hope they don't dwell too much on this Dexter type "dark passenger" concept too much.

Very good first installment!!

Has anyone else noticed that broadcast shows arestarting to look more like cable fare? Thinking Hannibal, The Following etc.

I haven't watched The Following but the production quality of Hannibal is really high. I recently saw the first episode and I enjoyed every moment of it. I like it even more than The Killing and I really liked that show.

Do you guys have an idea when the pulled episode will be aired outside the US? Will it still be in order? I like this show a lot but I think it might mess up the main plot considering that they are serialized.

Well this is annoying. Why didn't they just change the time slot for it to be aired closer to midnight or something? I guess we can just wait for the actual episode to be aired in Asia / Europe. And this is a pivotal episode in the development of Hannibal's relationship with the child killer. Ugh.

I finally got to watch the pulled episode and

apart from stating that it's the children murdering their family, I don't find anything that is "too much" on this one. It didn't even show the actual murder happening and most of the air time was still focused on the main plot. Or maybe it's just me :p

    • I never knew Windows had a "hidden" collection of tools

      By jordanspringer · Posted

      I cannot believe this is a news post from Neowin. This should be embarassing, coming from a "senior editor". Is it your first day using Windows?! Maybe it's time to find a new Windows news site.
    • Module Blocked - Is this Okay?

      By SuperDuckGuy · Posted

      It's from having Core Isolation enabled in Windows security settings, which is a good thing!  It's letting you know it's not loading the Bonjour module as it's not signed in a way it would prefer. Bonjour was most likely installed along with iTunes. Feel free to disable that message using the checkbox.
    • Rockstar confirms Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders begin next week, unveils cover art

      By TCA · Posted

      I'm looking forward to starting over online. I have no reason to keep all the money, cars, rank after 13 years. Now if I can just move my character itself and nothing else. I would be fine with that. But I doubt they would do a setup that way.
