Mads Mikkelsen Is Keeping Those 'Hannibal' Season 4 Hopes Alive

Mads Mikkelsen Is Keeping Those ‘Hannibal’ Season 4 Hopes Alive Another day, another story about theHannibalseason that never was.Hannibalwas a beautiful tropical fish of a show, but it was also so strange and otherworldly that it’s a miracle it lasted more than one season.
