Thriller; starring Anthony Hopkins and Julianne Moore; directed by Ridley Scott

Release Date: February 9 (MGM)

FBI agent Clarice Starling’s fate looked bleak a year ago. Sure, she outwitted serial killer Hannibal Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs, but surviving the sequel process without star Jodie Foster and director Jonathan Demme—who both chose not to take part in the proj ect—was another story. Now the twisted tale lives on. Directed by Scott (Gladiator), Hannibal features Moore as Starling, who’s singled out by a corrupt rival (Ray Liotta) and a vengeful Lecter survivor (Gary Oldman) to be the bait that’ll lure the smooth-talking cannibal out of hiding.
