Anthony Hopkins Originally Thought Silence of the Lambs Was a Children s Story
In the 30 years since Anthony Hopkins debut as Hannibal Lecter in
The Silence of the Lambs, the villain remains one of the most unsettling figures in all of pop culture, though Hopkins himself recently detailed that he initially thought the project would be intended for kids, based solely on its title. After overcoming the seemingly misleading title, Hopkins only got minimally invested in the script before becoming overwhelmed with its quality, ultimately leading towards a meeting with director Jonathan Demme before taking on the role. Hopkins would go on to earn the Academy Award for Best Actor for the part.
