Description The sequel to The Silence of the Lambs is going to have Julianne Moore as FBI agent Clarice Starling (rather than Jodie Foster, who was said to have disliked Hannibal, the Thomas Harris novel upon which the film is based). Anthony Hopkins, however, is back in his role as the always hungry , serial-kiling cannibal Hannibal Lecter. The plot is expected to stick fairly closely to the book (though the ending has been rewritten), with Clarice actually protecting Lecter from a vengeful victim - meal. Some sources claim the movie will not be as gruesome as the book, lts hope they are wrong. Planned release is set for February 14th, 2001.
