Fans of Hannibal were dealt a blow last week when Bryan Fuller revealed that both Netflix and Amazon had passed on the opportunity of picking up the cancelled NBC series for a fourth season. However, Fuller hasn’t given up hope of securing a future for the show, suggesting during its San Diego Comic-Con panel that he’s even exploring a feature film.
“We are still looking [for a new home]. We don’t have a lot of answers and we’re looking at the possibility of a feature. We’d like to continue with the show so the way this season ends, there may be an opportunity for a little break and then hopefully we’ll find a way to bring Mads [Mikkelsen] and Hugh [Dancy] back to you. NBC allowed us to do some crazy shit for three years. Netflix couldn’t do it because of the Amazon streaming. Amazon would liked to have done it but they wanted to do it very quickly and I wanted to be able to get all the scripts in advance before we starting shooting…the schedule with their desire to put it on immediately was just impossible for us.”
