Hugh Dancy explains why Hannibal Season 4 may never happen.

Hannibal, which aired from 2013 to 2015, was critically acclaimed during its time on air. It was praised for its complex storyline, stunning visuals and overall elegance. As such, when the series was cancelled after Season 3, the news certainly came as a shock. Ever since then, the show’s devoted fanbase has been clamoring for a fourth season or even a revival series, refusing to give up hope on Will Graham and Hannibal Lecter’s story.

Speaking to Collider’s own Christina Radish for Law & Order, Hugh Dancy, who played Will Graham on the show, addressed the calls for a fourth season and the possible reasons one hasn’t happened yet. First off, Dancy explained why he believed fans were still holding out hope in seeing Season 4 happen, saying “[W]e keep saying, when we get asked, “Oh, we’d love to do it,” which is true.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY “I’m not exactly surprised because essentially, first and foremost, somebody has to write a fairly sizable check. I’m not talking about me being paid. I’m talking about the cost of making a season of television. For a while, it seemed like the streamers were gonna be everybody’s savior, in that respect, but now there’s been a cutoff there. There are shows that are watched by millions of people that don’t make it past a second season.

When asked if there would ever come a point he’d no longer be interested in playing the character or hoping for Season 4, Dancy explained, “We may literally just age out of it and the people online will start to say, “Well, actually, that might be slightly gross.”” Before adding that the third season ended in a “fairly conclusive fashion” and Fuller’s idea for a fourth season always included an open-ended gap…so never say never. Oh, I feel like somebody’s looking after those dogs.

While, honestly speaking, fans may never get that fourth season, perhaps there is a small comfort in knowing that Will’s dogs are taken care of. Be sure to check out Radish's full interview with Dancy, but in the meantime check out Collider’s 90-minute interview with Fuller and Dancy below:
