Edward Norton and Hugh Dancy are both attractive. Yes, Hugh Dancy is appealing to the 'scruffy hipster nerd culture' that's really in with the demographic now, but I actually really like his take on the character, because his personality is completely off-putting despite his good looks.
And I think Mad Mikkelsen has about as much physical appeal as Cucumbersnatch, which is none at all. He's not even a younger take on the character, because Brian Cox was roughly that age when he played Hannibal. Anthony Hopkins is just the default mental image for Lecter for most people, so most assume he's older when he's not really.
