Lionsgate Home Entertainment has officially announce that it will release on Blu-ray Gaumont International Television's TV series Hannibal: Season One, starring Mads Mikkelsen (A Royal Affair, The Hunt), Hugh Dancy (Black Hawk Down), Laurence Fishburne (King of New York, The Matrix), Caroline Dhavernas (Devil), and Lara Jean Chorostecki. The release will arrive on the U.S. market on September 24th.
From Bryan Fuller, the co-creator of TV's Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies, David Slade, the director of Hard Candy and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and based on the novels of Thomas Harris, Hannibal: Season One delves into the complex mind of iconic villain Hannibal Lecter.
FBI Agent Will Graham (Dancy) hunts the most notorious serial killers. Graham is both gifted and cursed with an extraordinary ability: he can think like his prey, seeing what they see and feeling what they feel. What he doesn't know is that his new partner is the most notorious serial killer of all. While pursuing an especially troubling, cannibalistic murderer, Special Agent Jack Crawford (Fishburne) teams Graham with a highly respected psychiatrist - a man with a taste for the criminally minded: Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Mikkelsen). Dr. Lecter tests Graham every step of the way, toying with him and playing a game all his own, while they work to unravel the mystery and catch the killer. Like only Lecter can, he twists Graham's mind, daring him to question everything he knows about others...and himself.
The complete first season contains all 13 episodes, including one episode never before aired on TV, plus audio commentaries on select episodes, deleted scenes, a gag reel, storyboards and multiple featurettes that cut deep into the creation of the series.
Special Features:
Hannibal Executive Producers Bryan Fuller, Martha De Laurentiis and David Slade, along with star Hugh Dancy, announced the much-anticipated Season One Blu-ray release at Thursday night's Comic-Con
