"Hannibal" the canceled psychological thriller TV series from NBC may find its way back to the small screen with recent reports that its creator, Bryan Fuller is hoping for a continuation of the story. This horror series which is based on the terrifying villain from "Silence of the Lambs," Hannibal Lecter premiered in 2014 and aired its finale episode after a three-season run on Aug. 2015. The show's cancellation saddened many of its followers, and many are hoping that the series will be revived in some way
Well, maybe this wish from "Hannibal" fans is not that far from reality since an article that appeared in Starburst, informs that a mini-series revival is possible. This news was revealed in a podcast interview from the series showrunner, himself, Bryan Fuller. Apparently, Fuller thinks that the story of Hannibal Lecter is so broad that there is still a lot of unique and interesting plots that can be presented.
Fuller even adds that if ever the project pushes through, the ideal format would be several mini-series which will have six to eight episodes. Perhaps to keep the interest in the show running, Fuller also suggests the airing of the series to be on irregular intervals.

Meanwhile, a post from ScreenCrush said that Bryan Fuller will have to wait until Aug. 2017 before he can work on a possible mini-series project because of a contract agreement. The cast members of the "Hannibal" series include Hugh Dancy (Will Graham), Gillian Anderson (Dr. Bedelia Du Maurier), Mads Mikkelsen (Dr. Hannibal Lecter), and Caroline Dhavernas (Dr. Alana Bloom). Despite receiving critical acclaim, NBC chose to cancel the suspense-drama after three seasons due to low viewership.
