Hopkins set to return as Hannibal Lector - Blu-ray Forum

I'm not so excited about this one. Hopkins is getting up there in age. I'm not sure how a feeble, old Hannibal is going to come across in a movie. I already started noticing this change in Red Dragon.

I think Silence of the Lambs showed how effective minimizing the role is, though. I think one of the faults of the other Hopkins films was that there was too much of a"sandbox" for Lecter. Relegating him to short scenes or to some sort of self-imposed confinement would be interesting.
