Will “Clarice” Live Up to the Hype?

In case you missed it, the legendary thriller “The Silence of the Lambs” is getting a sequel in the form of the series titled “Clarice.” The show will take place one year after the events of the movie, where we’ll follow up with our favorite main protagonist, FBI agent Clarice Starling. In the sequel, she will return to Washington DC to chase new serial killers and other menacing threats.

To refresh your memory, “The Silence of the Lambs” was based on the novel of the same name by Thomas Harris. In the original movie, Clarice Starling was played by Jodie Foster and will now be replaced by the young and talented Rebecca Breeds, whom you may know from her roles in “Pretty Little Liars” and “the Originals.” The first film, starring Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter, won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.
