Hannibal Season 3 Poster: Via Twitter, Hannibal showrunner Bryan Fuller revealed a new poster for the upcoming third season.
Fuller previously revealed that the Hannibal Season 3 premiere "takes place over four different periods of time", which explains the expected time jump of the new season and the changes to Will Graham's (Hugh Dancy) life that have been teased thus far.
The season three premiere of Hannibal, "Antipasto" premieres on Thursday, June 4th, at 10:00pm EST. In addition to Dancy, the cast for season three includes Mads Mikkelsen as Dr. Hannibal Lecter, Glenn Fleshler as Cordell Doemling, Gillian Anderson as Dr. Bedelia du Maurier, Joe Anderson in place of Michael Pitt as Mason Verger, Tara Mae Thornton in the recurring role of Reba McClane, Richard Armitage as Francis Dolarhyde, aka The Tooth Fairy serial killer, and Nina Arianda as Mary Graham, Will's wife. It was also recently revealed that Zachary Quinto will guest star in at least one episode as one of Dr. Bedelia du Maurier's patients.
Vincenzo Natali directed the first three episodes of Hannibal Season 3, respectively titled "Antipasto", "Primavera", and "Secondo." Neil Marshall helmed "The Great Red Dragon", the eighth episode of season three. Natali is no stranger to Hannibal, having directed "Naka-Choko" and "Su-zakana" in season two. Marshall, who has directed two episodes of Game of Thrones and the first two episodes of NBC's Constantine, makes his Hannibal debut with "The Great Red Dragon."
