CHARLOTTE, N.C. — It’s NBC’s newest drama, “Hannibal”—Thursday nights at 10 p.m.

Hugh Dancy stars as FBI Special Investigator Will Graham ,who is haunted by his ability to empathize with serial killers.

He is drawn into the investigation of a series of missing college girls by Agent Jack Crawford (Laurence Fishburne), who has a special interest in Graham’s ability.

As Graham struggles to create a profile, Crawford enlists the help of noted psychiatrist Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen), who takes an interest in the case and particularly in Graham, in whom he senses a like-mind.

This morning on Larry’s Look, Hugh Dancy was our special guest. He talked about the series and how much he enjoyed working with Fishburne.

Larry actually surprised Dancy with a question about the British actor’s “connection” to Charlotte!

What’s the first information you consume in the morning?
I like The Guardian online because I feel like I’m getting a sense of what’s going on back home. I’m trying to get out of the habit of waking up and immediately turning on my phone and opening up The Guardian, but I have that slightly morbid desire to know if anything awful has happened in the world while I’m asleep.

What occupies your mind in the car or on the subway?
I’m kind of a news junkie, so on the subway, I find myself waiting until I get to a station that has 3G and then refreshing The Guardian to see if any news item has come up.

How do you listen to music?
Usually just iTunes. Listen, I’m a child of the ’70s and grew up in the ‘80s, and at this point, I think it’s just a little set in stone.

Anything good you’ve been listening to lately?
Plenty. Sbtrkt—that’s been rattling around in my head for a while now.
