The story that launched the mega popular Silence Of The Lambs franchise is back and this time in an all new exciting form. The spine-tingling saga of Dr. Hannibal Lecter is one that has chilled film and novel fans to the bone for over three decades and now NBC is bringing his story to America’s living rooms with the television series Hannibal. Casting calls for multiple roles of various sizes will be happening soon.
Hands down one of the most diabolical and fascinating villains in the history of page and screen, Hannibal Lecter has become the modern day embodiment of evil and horror. Author Thomas Harris created the terrifying character of Hannibal Lecter, a brilliant, cultured and merciless serial killer in 1981 and the world has been mesmerized with his stories over the span of four novels and 5 feature films. Those films have come to define the career of the amazing Anthony Hopkins who has brought Lecter to the screen three times in the commercial hits Red Dragon and Hannibal and most famously, in the multiple Oscar winning Silence Of The Lambs. This incarnation of Hannibal will follow the chronicles of Lecter beginning with the first book Red Dragon in which Hannibal helps a young FBI agent on the trail of a fellow serial killer from the confines of his prison cell. This series will surely be another unnerving cat and mouse game of wits that will entertain and astound.
This is a fantastic opportunity for any aspiring actor to work on a strong, character driven television series with a loyal, built in audience of millions.

Hannibal Lecter is my number favorite literary figure of all time and I would love to be involved in this show at any level. I have followed this TV show since day, as I immediately fell in love with the story and the world through the books and films. I think the work you folks at NBC under Bryan Fuller are doing is fantastic! I do have an well versed acting resume that could be provided upon request, but general traits are:
Height: 5'4
Age:21
Weight:190-200
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Brown

Ethnicity: White
Worth noting, a lot of my resume consist of villain/ antagonistic roles, also comedic. Currently 21, but have played up to age 55 convincingly with the proper makeup and acting technique. I work very well with others and have been told I am pleasant to work with.
Thank you for your considerations.
I am very interested in being part of the Hannibal world. I first discovered the books when I was sixteen and then went on to watch all of the films. I have regarded Thomas Harris fondly and found myself wishing to be part of this fantastic world. I have no prior acting skills I have modeled for various creative facilities and free lancing artists though and I am very quick to learn pay attention and follow directions as I am told. I am not by any means attempting to find a high prized role in this show but the very thought of even being a stand in or a background extra would be quite a personal achievement for me. I am a very fit. I skateboard and participate in classical saber fencing.

My name is Jonathan Franco, I’m a 21 year old gymnast in college and I compose classical music on the harpsichord and house music via ableton live. I’m from San Diego, but during the school year I am training and studying in Norman, Oklahoma.
I make frequent trips out to LA during the school year for house music festivals, collaborations and music video shoots, and I would love to be a part of the Hannibal series, as I have followed the books, movies (and lately) the show since I was about 11 years old.
I hope you keep me in mind if you have any roles you need filled, as it would be a great honor to me and I would love to help the series in any way possible.
I won't try to impress whoever reads this with any flashy experience, acting skills, or other things of that nature. I will however say that I have followed Thomas Harris since the beginning of his novels, and I believe I can be put to some use in this thriller. I'm a 21 year old college gymnast, and a fairly decent composer on the harpsichord. Please keep me in mind for any role in this series, as I would love to be a part of it.

I am 16 years old, of mixed skin colour and live just outside of Toronto. This would allow me to easily travel to the locations of where scenes are being filmed. I am a big fan of this new series and of the books. I would be absolutely thrilled to be on Hannibal and I am willing to commit to a regular role. I've taken highschool drama courses and a drama summer camp. My hope is to someday become a professional film director.

I'm an actress in Oklahomans largest haunted house as a silent hill nurse, I'd love this opportunity.
Dear Bryan Fuller and to whom it may concern,
If an upcoming season could use my service, I do insist that you request it; I would freely be a part of this iconic series.

I self-educate to live, and to give. I am comfortable in my own company. I leave no detail unnoticed. I do not regurgitate opinion. Language is my love. I have a very unique vocal variety for convincing compromise. Solid articulation and diction — when speaking fast, too. I can sing with great control and clarity. I do not hold to too many truths; persona is often a blank page. I am new to 'acting', though a rapid adapter and I will pick it up immediately with my certain understanding of this art.

I highly admire your work; to every degree. I needn’t tell you, but I see Hannibal in unrivaled beauty; the performance, the atmosphere; it is an art that extends beyond the script — while the script could stand alone. I hear the message beyond the emotion. I want to give you aid in that design.
If I may contribute in any way possible (even as crew — before or after), please do not hesitate to request. It is my pleasure. Fame is not an objective, but, to give as the greats do, is. I cooperate well with people, I respect an honest opinion, and rejection does not end my offering.
Your time has been generous,
Thank you!
I am a huge fan of the Hannibal series as well as the books and I will commit to a regular role. I'm GREAT at being a villain and the pleasure is mine.
I am an admirer of the Thomas Harris books, as well as the movies and this new Tv show.
I am a high school level student who is very enthusiastic about the Hannibal Lecter franchise. I am currently part of an acting troupe(mostly non union theater), and speech team where I was granted the honor of being 5th over all at the state level by using my excerpt of "The Tell-tale Heart", by Edgar Allen Poe as my piece. It is my dream to specifically leave a small mark on any part of this wonderful story.
Thank you.
I have loved the Hannibal franchise since I first saw Silence of the lambs about 7 years ago, and I love the series. I am currently doing a performing arts course, and would love to be a professional actor some day. It would be my biggest dream to have a role in the new series of Hannibal, however big or small the role is.
Thank you.
