I'm actually looking forward to this one! Yes, of course, it is another villain role, but I am also great fan of all the Hannibal films so Mads + Hannibal=
Also I do not think that it is always bad to be cast as the villain. It all depends on the script. There are a number of villains out there with a deep backstory and considerable character development. So let's all just hope for the best with Hannibal

I still hope, that Mads wouldn't do it. It could happen very much till they start to shoot. Maybe I should write a very beautiful script for him, so he doesn't want to make any other film before that one.

YES Please write a beautiful script all in lovely German so he will become so fluent that they won't need to replace his voice!
But what will you write about?

Of course it will be in German. It's easier for me. The story is since years in my head. Well I have to talk first with a friend of mine, because she has created this character for our roleplaygame - the problem was, she did a lot of other things, than writing, so we only described a week in his life in four years maybe. And I imagined hundreds of different stories in my head, how's going on with him - and my character (the female one). But a year ago maybe she decided to off our rolegameplay definitely (she was there about 15 % anyway) and our story died. My character too, because she was fallen in love so deeply with him, that I couldn't write her without being sad because she lost him or in another love story, because he was the ONE!
Mads would play a very interesting character with a lot of dark sites because of his sad and cruel past - and with good sites, because at the end, he's a good guy - even if he would say, that he isn't one.
The thing is: I can't decide, which of the hundreds of different stories I have in my mind, I should use. They're all beautiful with a lot of bad times and some good times, adventures ... Everytime I come to the point: they could live with each other for a while, I try to imagine a different story. Even if I think, that the life together would be interesting too, but it's more thrilling, how they get together. Crazy … Typical Hollywood, I suppose. I've started several times to write only ONE of those ideas, but it would be every time a roman - not boring to read, but it took a lot of time to write. And my mind is faster than my fingers (and I'm sooooo lazy to write it down).

I keep hearing people say that this will only last for 3 or 4 pilot episodes. How are they so sure? I mean, there is so much crap on all television, how are they so sure this one will not make it when utter rubbish has??? TV/network politics, I suppose.

I suppose, that NBC likes the rumors about the series. The comments I've read about NBC aren't nice. So they want probably a good actor to push the series. And Mads won the Cannes award for the best actor.
I could imagine, that Mads doesn't really care, what rumors about him are in the world. That will makes his movies interesting for people who don't know him. So he won't clear it until he has to, because he's filming another movie at the same time. It's very clever.
@Empress If you learn German, than I will write it down.

Bryan Fuller mentions Mads and Hannibal. Gore, gore, gore! And apparently, Mads will turn into a chef! Cannibalistic chef
Quote :
Laurence Fishburne Joining Hannibal TV Series?
The two lead characters of the Hannibal TV series have been cast, but it looks as if NBC is looking to add a strong supporting cast to the high-profile project. According to a new report, Laurence Fishburne is close to being cast. TVLine reveals that Laurence Fishburne is circling the role of Jack Crawford, “the agent-in-charge at the Behavioral Science Unit of the FBI who is tasked with tracking down a certain flesh-eating serial killer.”
Mads Mikkelsen (Casino Royale) has already signed on to play Hannibal Lecter and Hugh Dancy has been cast as FBI agent Will Graham. David Slade (30 Days of Night, Eclipse) will be directing the pilot episode and 13 one-hour episodes have already been ordered for the first season.
Synopsis: “Hannibal” – One of the most fascinating literary characters comes to life on television for the first time: psychiatrist-turned-serial-killer, Dr. Hannibal Lecter. In this new drama from Bryan Fuller (“Pushing Daisies,” “Heroes”), based on the characters from Thomas Harris’ classic novels, we see where this incredible story began. Will Graham (Hugh Dancy, “The Big C”) is a gifted criminal profiler who is on the hunt for a serial killer with the FBI. Graham’s unique way of thinking gives him the astonishing ability to empathize with anyone – even psychopaths. He seems to know what makes them tick. But when the mind of the twisted killer he’s pursuing is too complicated for even Will to comprehend, he enlists the help of Dr. Lecter, one of the premier psychiatric minds in the country. Armed with the uncanny expertise of the brilliant doctor, Will and Hannibal (known as a serial killer only to the audience) form a brilliant partnership and it seems there’s no villain they can’t catch. If Will only knew… Fuller is writer and executive producer. Martha De Laurentis (“Red Dragon,” “Hannibal”), Sara Colleton (“Dexter”), Jesse Alexander (“Lost”, “Heroes”), and Katie O’Connell also serve as executive producers. David Slade is the director/executive producer for the series pilot. “Hannibal” is produced by Gaumont International Television.”

First pictures of Hannibal:
Unfortunately (for me!) Mads look is more Exit-style which I don't like... *sigh* But German TV is showing Hannibal next year... though it will be dubbed...

Here are some pictures too. Mostly the same.
The thought came to my mind, that Mads maybe only played his role of the Green Butchers again. Svend has changed his look a little bit and isn't full of self-pity. But he does make some human flesh again - in his kitchen. Because he knows how to make an excellent human-flesh-meal.
But I don't know, if I will watch it. If I'll do it, then only because of Mads. The theme isn't more interesting to me than before I heard that Mads will play the part of Hannibal. The pictures aren't not that thrilling, that I have to watch it.
