"Mads Mikkelsen has expressed doubt that Hannibal will earn any Primetime Emmy nominations. The nominees for the 65th annual ceremony are to be announced on Thursday (July 18), and Mikkelsen recently told Vulture that he would be honored to get a nod.  &amp;quot;We never know, do we? Isn&amp;#039;t it rare for a network to get that kind of nomination?&amp;quot; the actor wondered, adding: &amp;quot;If people believe we can get a couple of nominations, that would be fantastic.&amp;quot; Mikkelsen went on to say: &amp;quot;I would be very surprised if I got nominated. And very enthusiastic. But I hope I don&amp;#039;t get nominated before Hugh [Dancy] does, because he&amp;#039;s doing tremendous work on the show. Maybe we could be nominated as a couple - the bromance! &amp;quot;I can say really, really honestly that Hannibal really does love Will Graham. That doesn&amp;#039;t mean he won&amp;#039;t eat him, of course. But he loves him. He&amp;#039;d prefer to have him as a friend for the rest of his life. If that doesn&amp;#039;t work out, he&amp;#039;ll find something else.&amp;quot; Mikkelsen also addressed rumors that Davie Bowie could join Hannibal as the titular character&amp;#039;s uncle.   &amp;quot;That would be amazing, if that happens! I would love that,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m an enormous fan. I actually saw him when I was living in New York in the late &amp;#039;80s.  &amp;quot;I was playing basketball down around Tompkins Square, and there was a little fuss on the court and it was sealed off, and it turned out that David Bowie was doing a part of his new music video there.  &amp;quot;So I was standing 20 metres away from him, and that was my first encounter with a celebrity, ever.&amp;quot; Hannibal is expected to air its second season in 2014.
