Hugh Dancy as FBI profiler Will Graham

Hugh Dancy as Will Graham seems like an odd choice. It’s not like his previous stint at The Big C prepared him for anything we’ll see in Hannibal — although, to be fair, it had some dark moments. But after watching the first episode you instantly get why he’s perfect for the role. Hugh Dancy plays a man with the gift of feeling and thinking exactly what the serial killer did. And it’s a huge psychological burden.
