This interview really is a delicious treat for all fans of Hannibal and Hannigram! See below for the choicest Hannigram tidbits:
‘Where we left Will and Hannibal at the cliff and this power tenderness and intimacy that they are experiencing in that moment - that feels like it’s a launchpad. And so I don’t think we can pull back where that is, but we have to continue the trajectory and continue that level of intimate exploration between these two men. And their queer love story, their queer blurring of identities… It’s not so much an evolution as it is an extrapolation of what was intended for Season 4… If you liked the trajectory, you’re going to love where it’s going.’
‘It does become more intimate, and I do see pathways of expressing that intimacy in ways that the Fannibal family will feel validated by.’
‘Whatever is beautiful is what [Hannibal’s] attracted to. And [Mads] ungenders Hannibal’s attraction… He’s Hannibal. He’s genderless. He is manifesting in this form in a way that the devil has chosen… And I think Will’s state of mind in Season 4 is conducive to a greater fluidity than his state of mind in the previous seasons.’
Googling…
‘Do Will and Hannibal end up together?… kiss… die… love each other… kill together… date… Hopefully all of the above.’
‘There’s something about the transportation of a kiss… I feel like [on the bluff] their lips lingered so long, hovering above each other, that… I don’t think we can roll that back. I don’t think that’s authentic. I don’t think it’s realistic for two people to get to that moment, and if their story is continuing, to ignore that from happening. I can see versions of suppression. But, as we all know, anything you suppress is just going to erupt louder and harder.’
‘The arc of their intimacy is continuing on an upward trajectory.’
Summing up Season 4… ‘Lurid erotic intimacy.’
