'Hannibal' Season 3: Prepare To Enter Lecter's Childhood Home, Plot For 'Secondo' Revealed

The psychiatrist ended season 2 of Hannibal by jumping a trans-Atlantic flight with the series' eponymous cannibal, but season 3 viewers will quickly come to learn that Gillian Anderson's character is in complete control of her own situation.

"Their relationship is hard to quantify for the audience because they think, 'What is she up to? Why is she on that plane?'" series creator Bryan Fuller said of the upcoming premiere, according to Comic Book Resource. "The fun for us was like, 'We have to make her smart. We can't make her brainwashed or be duped by Hannibal.' She has to be a woman in charge of her own story and be driving her own story in the same way that Hannibal has to drive his own story."

"You're coming in with a criminal and his psychiatrist, who have escaped the law and are living abroad and are having adventures with their situation that are exciting and intriguing," Fuller teased.
