Previous Hannibal Season 3 Spoiler revealed that Gillian Anderson's Dr. Bedelia Du Maurier will pose as the lover of Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen) in the premier episode. The con couple, who were last seen in season two sitting side by side on a plane after Hannibal left Will Graham (Hugh Dancy) and Agent Jack Crawford (Lawrence Fishburne) drowning in blood, will go around Europe stalking a new victim. However, it wasn't clear how long their fake relationship will last.
One thing is for sure though, Anderson will be in the show for the whole season. If she doesn't fall into the hands of Hannibal Lecter, you'll see her much longer than previous seasons. In a report by TV Line, it has been confirmed that Dr. Bedelia is now a series regular.

Gillian Anderson will be devouring a bigger piece of Hannibal when the NBC drama returns in 2015.
TVLine has learned exclusively that the X-Files vet - who recurred in Seasons 1 and 2 as the title cannibal's shrink, Bedelia du Maurier - has closed a deal to be a series regular in Season 3.
The Season 2 finale set the stage for Bedelia to play a more significant role in the show's third season - something exec producer Bryan Fuller confirmed over the summer at Comic-Con.
With this recent Hannibal Season 3 Spoiler, fannibals will have more chance to dissect that mystery that is Dr. Bedelia. In previous season, she led viewers to believe that she's on the side of Will Graham after she visited him in prison to say she believes in the FBI profiler. However, with that shocking revelation in the season two finale, viewers are more puzzled than ever. What is she thinking? What does she get teaming up with Hannibal? Does the cannibal psychiatrist have something to force her to do it?
