Interview with the Vampire

5 Enticing things about the new Interview with The Vampire TV series!

At Comic-Con 2022 I attended the Interview with the Vampire panel for Vampyre Magazine. It featured the cast, writers, and producers. This new spin embraces Anne Rice’s source material. We got treated to a few-minute clip and the official season on the trailer.  Here are the 5 most enticing things I took away.

  1. The Chemistry between Lestat (Sam Reid) and Louis (Jacob Anderson), is what makes the show. As these are Byronic characters with a homoerotic romance.

  2. Storyville District (1895-1917) is an intriguing setting to experience New Orleans that has not been explored like this before on the screen since 1970s.

  3. Lestat is a genius sociopath giving me rockstar Hannibal vibes.

  4. Lestat speaks French reflecting his past which adds depth to his character.

  5. Louis keeps his most important notable characteristic: his conflicted faith.

I am grateful for this experience and look forward to seeing and experiencing more from this new show!

Eternally,

PS - maybe someday I will be finally able to make fangs for the Vampire Lestat! lol
