DISNEY+ Hotstar audiences across the world today will get to check out the spine-chilling arrival of Gannibal, a heart-pounding new Japanese psychothriller.
Set in Kuge, a fictional Japanese village, Gannibal sees newly moved police officer Daigo Agawa arrive a broken man.

Thrown into a hostile environment with suspense around every corner, will the latest police officer to patrol the streets of Kuge village be able to bring those responsible to justice before it’s too late?
Based on the hit manga series of the same name by Masaaki Ninomiya, Gannibal features a unique storyline.

Show Kasamatsu (Tokyo Vice, Love You as the World Ends) take on the role of Keisuke Goto, a member of the Goto family that dominates the mysterious Kuge village.
