Just how crazy is the third season of NBC’s “Hannibal” going to be? Well, what if I told you that Guillermo del Toro – best known for Blade 2, Cronos, The Devil’s Backbone, Pan’s Labyrinth and even Pacific Rim – was directing one of the final three episodes?

According to Fashion & Style, De Laurentiis Company’s April newsletter arrived a bit early, and with it, the names of the directors helming the final three episodes of Season 3 of “Hannibal”.

“Shooting back-to-back, the last three episodes of the season are being directed by Guillermo del Toro, Guillermo Navarro, and Michael Rymer.”

Navarro, meanwhile, directed several Season 1 episodes of “Hannibal,” and worked with del Toro on several of his films. Rymer is also a “Hannibal” alum, directing a handful of episodes (including the penultimate Season 2 episode).

Created by Bryan Fuller and produced by the Dino De Laurentiis Company, the series stars Mads Mikkelsen, Hugh Dancy, Laurence Fishburne and Gillian Anderson.

“Hannibal” returns June 4, 2015.

Here’s some previously reported casting news to look forward to:

Richard Armitage was recently cast to portray serial killer Francis Dolarhyde, a.k.a “The Tooth Fairy.” Rutina Wesley, of “True Blood,” signed on for the role of Reba McClane, a blind woman who is Dolarhyde’s last chance at humanity.

“True Detective” villain Glenn Fleshler portrays Cordell, the attentive and creepy doctor in Season 3, they explain. A character from Thomas Harris’ “Hannibal” novels, Cordell cares for the disfigured Mason Verger.

The show also replaced “Boardwalk Empire” actor Michael Pitt with Joe Anderson for Verger’s role.

Zachary Quinto will appear in at least one episode go “Hannibal” as a patient of Bedelia (Gillian Anderson).
