With the third season of “Hannibal” still a ways off, we’re fiending for another visit with the good doctor and his black wendigo alter-ego. That being said, some juicy news has come that fits like a flesh suit and has us all gooey inside.
TVLine reports that Richard Armitage (The Hobbit) will join NBC’s “Hannibal” in Season 3 in the terrifying role of Francis Dolarhyde (aka The Tooth Fairy), the main villain of Thomas Harris’ Red Dragon, one book in the series on which “Hannibal” is based. The hulking Dolarhyde is a serial killer with a set of chompers that would make the Big Bad Wolf a little envious — and a penchant for targeting entire households for slaughter.
Armitage’s gig is slated to last six episodes.
The Season 3 opener will pick up one year after Hannibal (Mads Mikkelsen) and Bedelia (Gillian Anderson) were seen jetting off to Europe. For more info be sure to visit “Hannibal” on NBC.com, “like” “Hannibal” on Facebook, and follow “Hannibal” on Twitter.
