Clarice Trailer Review

Clarice is set a year after the events of the 1991 film The Silence of the Lambs. Clarice can be seen investigating a number of serial killers and sexual predators. However, this is not the only thing she has to look out for, she also needs to manage the politics of D.C. The trailer looks impressive and Rebecca seems like a perfect choice for the role. Clarice can still be seen dealing with the experiences of her past. Her past haunts her, but it also empowers her to start finding her voice in an environment that men rule. The series is all set to bring out the horrors of The Silence of The Lambs in a different way. Clarice arrives on CBS in the US on February 11, 2021.
