'Hannibal' Series Finale News: Hugh Dancy Talks About the Last Episode
NBC's 'Hannibal' came to its climactic conclusion last Saturday and has seemingly satisfied audiences with the way it decided to go out.
Main characters Will and Dr. Lecter shared a moment together that was fated from the very beginning of the show, and in an interview with EW, Will actor Hugh Dancy spoke on how he felt about the ending.
He first states that he wasn't aware that the show would conclude the way it did in the beginning of the season.
"Well, I guess I found out a month or so before we got there, that that's what Bryan was thinking about," he said. "And my real question was like, "Okay, I guess I could understand that ending." We had an ongoing conversation about how to get to that point, like how to make it an emotional pay-off as well as a fun, crazy ending, but actually see why these two characters have got to a place where that might happen."
Realizing that the show will be cancelled, Dancy is asked if he would ever appear on a different version of a Hannibal series.
"Yeah. I would definitely be up for it, for sure," he responded. "Partially because I think everybody enjoyed working on the show, but also specifically because what [Fuller] described sounded like so much fun. Whether it will happen is a different question."
Dancy is also asked what he believes happens to Will after the ending.
"[Laughs] I'm sorry to say, but if we never see them again, then they never made it from their fall off the cliff," Dancy said. "[Laughs] It's hard to say, because do you really kill Hannibal? No. And it's also, it's a very conscious reference to Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty. We all know that Sherlock Holmes came back from that. Whether I'm Sherlock or Moriarty in that equation, I don't even know."
