Guest Mole Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 This is from 411: Another prequel is in the works for Hannibal. Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs both came before Hannibal in terms of the story. Author Thomas Harris is working on the prequel with producer Dino de Laurentiis who worked on Red Dragon. This new prequel will be about the life of Hannibal Lecter as a child. The film will be titled The Lecter Variation: The Story of Young Hannibal Lecter and chronicle Lecter's life from Lithuania through his teenage years in Paris to his arrival in the United States. The search is on for male actors to play Lecter as the ages of 12, 16, 20, and 25. Credit: Reuters
Zetterberg is God Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 Might be interesting to see the formation of his criminal genius as a child but I still think it's just another film to gain any money left in the Hannibal series.
Yuna_Firerose Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 This will either be really good, or really, really, bad. Let's hope it's the former.
LaParkaYourCar Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 So does this mean they'll show the incident where his sister was cannibalized which caused him to be scarred and eventually become a cannibal? Atleast that's what I heard happened as far as storylines.
Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 It won't work, I can tell you now. They'll try to make him sinister as a kid, like the Omen or something, and it will fail. Kids aren't scary.

Atleast that's what I heard happened as far as storylines. That IS how it happens. It said so on the Red Dragon DVD. Kicking the dead horse, they are.

Guest Dmann2000 Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Doesn't this remind anyone of the Matt Damon skit on SNL- Hannibal Lecter- the College Years
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 you know, if they would've just put this stuff in Hannibal, like it was in plain english in the book, then they wouldn't have to put out yet another subpar movie..like Hannibal was. No, Dino, No.
Guest JMTapes Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Ok, enough with the Hannibal crap. The last two didn't exactly set the world on fire, why bother?
Guest Crux Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Another one? I think I had enough after Hannibal. I *guess* it could be okay...probably not.
