Just Wait Until You See This Hannibal Lecter Doll #SDCC
While there are no actual details on the release yet, Toy Ark shared shots of Blitzway’s The Silence of the Lambs Hannibal Lecter doll at the ongoing San Diego Comic-Con. It’s unclear if there are two dolls or if the clothing is interchangeable but what you’ll see hard Anthony Hopkins in his prison garb as well as the famous straightjacket.
The third trailer for creator Ryan Murphy’s “The Shards”, based on the 2023 prep school thriller novel by American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis, laments how hard kids had it in 1981.
To be fair, there’s a serial killer on the loose and a lot of backstabbing in the trailer below.
Look for “The Shards” to premiere on FX and Hulu on August 5 at 6 p.m. PT.
Igby Rigney (“The Fall of the House of Usher”), Homer Gere (“The Agency”), Graham Campbell, Kaia Gerber (Shell), Evan Rachel Wood (“Westworld”), Igby Rigney, Wes Bentley, and Hayes Warner star.
Set in 1981 Los Angeles, the semi-autobiographical, dark coming-of-age tale follows a 17-year-old Ellis during his final year at the elite Buckley prep school. Upending the character’s world is the arrival of a mysterious new student, Robert Mallory, whose unsettling presence coincides with the activities of a serial killer known as The Trawler.
In the series, Rigney will portray Ellis, and Campbell will play Thom. Gere, son of actor Richard Gere, has been cast as Robert Mallory. Frequent Murphy collaborator Max Winkler (“American Horror Story,“ “Grotesquerie”) is attached to direct.
The series is produced by 20th Television in association with Ryan Murphy Television.
