    I know that Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins both starred in "Silence of the Lambs" and "Hannibal" but there is a third movie. What is it called, and did they both star in it?

    Question #59285. Asked by dim_dude.

    The third film (first in the series of books) is called "Red Dragon." Anthony Hopkins starred in it, but not Jodie Foster. I don't think she was in the second film, "Hannibal" either, it was Julianne Moore.

    Jodie Foster was only in "Silence of the Lambs." The third movie (first book) was "Red Dragon."

    The first film based on "Red Dragon" was Michael Mann's "Manhunter" (1986), in which neither Foster nor Hopkins appeared. Hannibal Lecter was played by Brian Cox.

    I loved Manhunter (1986), which was originally titled "Red Dragon" but the name was changed due to the release of "The Year of the Dragon." The FBI agent was played by William Peterson or "Gil Grissom" of "CSI" fame. Hannibal Lecktor, which was the way it was spelled at the time, was played by Brian Cox.

    The only actor to appear in all four versions was Frankie Faison, Lt. Fisk in "Manhunter." He appears as Barney in Silence of the Lambs (1991), Hannibal (2001) and Red Dragon (2002).

    'Red Dragon', and whilst Hopkins stars in it, Foster is absent as she is in 'Hannibal.' Agent Starling is played by Julianne Moore here.

    'Red Dragon' was originally filmed in 1986 as 'Manhunter' by Michael Mann and starred William Peterson in the role that would be reprised by Edward Norton. Lecktor was played by the immensley talented Scottish actor Brian Cox (who would play Norton's father in Spike Lee's 25th Hour), though in the original film he is a much more minor character.
