She lives in the UK, but I'm sure she flew to Canada to work since it was multi-episodes. They could have shot all her scenes in a few days.

This show is the fucking bomb.
When I heard they were making a Hannibal series that took place before Red Dragon, I had expected it to suck ass, but this thing is awesome. Great cast, great art direction, great writing, great directing.

Hannibal is still in limbo. However, at least 1 cable network and Amazon are interested should NBC cancel it.

This seems like a good fit for FX or AMC. I can't really see any other network that would air this. It's just too dark.

I could easily see this on AMC paired up with either The Walking Dead or after The Killing (didn't they bring that back).
It's too good of a show to not have another backer. NBC just doesn't know what to do with a program like this.

The budget would likely be cut in a move to cable. The problem with it on NBC is that Hannibal's content pairs up with nothing else on their roster of shows. It's too bad it didn't end up on Fox, I suspect they would have kept it around despite the poor ratings.

Hannibal is soon going to be airing on Amazon Prime (the first Season).
This might be the push it needs to get it renewed.

This seems likely to show up on A&E paired with Bate's Motel. Or as they'll call it, the most ridiculously grim night of TV.
