Co-showrunner Andrew Dabb revealed that COVID meant the writers had to rework the final two episodes of the series. Dabb said:

What became of Will and Hannibal after that plunge off the cliff? Series creator Bryan Fuller doled out morsels of the show’s future right after the series finale, but left us drooling for a full meal. A potential Season 4 “would have explored the Hannibal/Will Graham relationship in a much deeper fashion than the series ever has before,” Fuller told TVLine. (He also previously mentioned that the Season 4 plan was “an interesting continuation” of Will’s bizarre sex/love/death attraction to his cannibalistic therapist, “as well as a subversion of it at the same time.”) Talk about tasty.

Robert and Michelle King talk to TV Insider:
What can you share about what we would’ve seen in Season 5?

Series creator James Roland said that Season 2 would actually be titled Blood Rock — as in the name of the prison a buck-naked Arthur (played Alan Ritchson) stumbled upon after the collapse of Heart HQ — and tell what was “in many ways a brand-new story that took place in the same universe,” with “a bunch of grindhouse sub-genres all crammed into a prison island.” As for Grace (Christina Ochoa) and others presumed to perish? An ostensible Season 3 would “collide” any new characters “with those left behind in Season 1.”
