According to Variety, producers Gaumont Intl. Television and Martha De Laurentiis of the De Laurentiis Co. are actively shopping the show to new buyers and could potentially be saved. Hannibal’s Food Stylist Janice Poon and producer Loretta Ramos hinted at the possibility earlier today.

Fans have been writing to Netflix to help save their show. It has been done before. Fox’s The Mindy Project was cancelled after three seasons, but was saved by Hulu who will be hosting their fourth season. So, it could happen! Good luck, Fannibals!
