Well now, here’s something to be thankful for: Eddie Izzard has confirmed that he will be returning in Season 2 of NBC’s “Hannibal”! All we need now is for the network to finally announce the show’s return date, and we’ll be really happy.

“I will be back,” Izzard told Digital Spy while promoting his latest comedy tour, “Force Majeure.” “Everyone’s given me great feedback on ‘Hannibal,’ and I’ve only done two episodes – I really let go in that one!”

“Hannibal” will return in early 2014 with a 13-episode season that begins with Episode 2.01, “Kaiseki” (a traditional multi-course Japanese dinner).

“Hannibal,” starring Hugh Dancy as Will Graham and Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Lecter, was developed for television by Bryan Fuller, who also serves as writer and executive producer. In addition to Fuller, Martha De Laurentiis, Jesse Alexander, Chris Brancato, Sara Colleton, Katie O’Connell, Elisa Roth, Sidonie Dumas, and Christophe Riandee also serve as executive producers. The series is produced by Gaumont International Television, Dino De Laurentiis Company, and Living Dead Guy Productions and co-commissioned internationally by Sony Pictures Television Networks.
