Sir Sean Connery was Jonathan Demme's first choice to play Dr. Hannibal Lecter, but he turned the part down.

i think he would have been fine and would have played hannibal more charming that creepy.
sean wouldn't have taken the role because he wouldn't have understood it.
the only actor i've heard of who i'm glad he turned down that role would be deniro.

If Hannibal was supposed to be from Brooklyn, De Niro would be the go-to guy
