Caroline Dhavernas: That’s a huge question. Well, working with Bryan [Fuller] is always such a treat. I had the pleasure of meeting him when we did Wonderfalls together, when I was about 25 years old, so a while ago. And just having the opportunity to work with him again, and for him to trust me for a completely different character, was really a beautiful moment in my career.

Hannibal as the Aquamaniac is first shown in the pilot, " Mexican Slayride: Part 1", and is shown again in the third season episode "Breakout!". Hannibal's color choices are rich and varied. He frequently dons dark greens, browns, and blues. These colors often symbolize his connection to nature - both its beauty and its brutality. Meanwhile, his occasional choice of brighter colors or pastels shows his ability to blend into high society. His color choices are rarely conventional, and like the patterns of his suits, they convey layers of meaning. The choice of color is often selected based on the mood, the music, or the scenery, adding an additional level of psychological complexity to his character. Accessories can make or break an outfit. Hannibal’s style often includes tasteful cufflinks, sophisticated timepieces, and occasionally a boutonnière in the lapel. These subtle additions can elevate the entire look. Known amongst phans as "the Wishing dress," Christine's Act II costume worn during her soaring moment of self-empowerment in"Wishing YouWere SomehowHere Again" is notably the only time we see Christine wear clothing of her own. In every other scene, she's either in a costume for the opera, a costume for the Masquerade ball...or, at the end,a wedding dress the Phantom forces her to wear.This is the one glimpse we get at Christine's personal taste and style, a modest blue dress adorned with an elegant floral pattern and a velvet floral collar. Her dress was exceedingly fashionable for its time, reminiscent of the blue dress in the1875 painting by Jules David titled, "Two Women in Day Dresses."A2: The bold patterns and colors are reflective of Hannibal's complex personality and psychological state. They also symbolize his audacity and his refined yet unconventional taste. Unfortunately, that’s true, and one could argue that’s why NBC decided to cancel it. Unfortunately, television shows like Keeping Up with the Kardashians, The Housewives of (name a county) and reality shows documenting the lives of unusual families tend to be favored by the masses. Although NBC’s Hannibal first aired nearly ten years ago, no one who has ever laid eyes on the show feels even a modicum of surprise that it remains a topic of conversation today. Hannibal went beyond expectations and norms for a network television show of its time. And though it was canceled too soon, in its wake remains a whole new legacy for the cannibalistic killer. After its cancellation, it’s fair to say, Hannibal became a true cult hit. To this day, new viewers are discovering the show, which happily exists on streaming platforms such as Hulu and FilmRise, and eagerly diving into its blood-soaked, fever-dream fairy tale. To celebrate Hannibal‘s continuing agency in this world, we spoke to Caroline Dhavernas, who played Doctor Alana Bloom. NBC

For many fans, watching Hannibal was a transformative experience, whether it was just transforming what they thought good TV was, or helping them to see something in themselves.

Mr. Lee only appears on-screen in the pilot episode "Mexican Slayride: Part 1" (although a shot of Hannibal in character as Mr. Lee is used as part of the first season opening credits sequence). However, the alias of Mr. Lee is often referred to throughout the series by clients and by the team itself, though these examples tended to fade out after the first two seasons. Typically "Mr. Lee" is the first one to screen potential clients and then refers them to a second location to meet a second liaison on behalf of the team.Like Bond, most people know Hannibal by mononym alone; we all know about his unique palate going in, but everyone around him (most of whom have attended one of his dinner parties) does not. “Before we begin, you must all be warned – nothing here is vegetarian,” Hannibal announces at the beginning of a dinner, with great aplomb; the fun comes from knowing that meat is the least of his guests’ worries.
