Hannibal season 3, episode 1 airs tonight on NBC.

Season 3 opens with Hannibal moving through the European landscape with Bedelia Du Maurier (Gillian Anderson) after eluding FBI capture. Hannibal assumes a new identity in Florence, Italy, working at a museum.

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 (Mads Mikkelsen), 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…

Hannibal season 3, episode 1 airs June 4 at 10 PM EDT on NBC.
