[news post!]

I have been wanting to do a newsy post for a while so here we go:

1)Joe Anderson replaced Michael Pitt as Mason Verger. I haven't really seen anything he's done, but since he's  going to be hidden under a bunch of makeup, it doesn't really matter all that much anyhow.

2)Hugh, Laurence,Gillian and Mads were filming in Florence.Lots of really good candids from that. A few people were upset because Hugh was "rude" to them. To be fair, they didn't really say "hey, Hugh,over here!" I can somewhat understand him "blowing them off" because the day that it happened was his son Cyrus' birthday.

There were pictures from  when they were filming one day, with Hugh and Mads all bloodied up. I am now very curious to see what the story behind those pictures is! Then, there was another with Laurence Fishburne holding an urn. I can hazard a few bets as to what's going on there.. :)

3) No airdate for Season 3 yet(and I suspect that we won't have one for some time).

4)Hannibal has been on a TON of "best of" lists for the year. Which isn't really that much of a surprise :)
