Anne Rice's "INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE" Releases Official Trailer For Bloody New Series

AMC’s “Interview With The Vampire” is retelling author Anne Rice’s greatest selling novel and it will be sinking its fangs into AMC and AMC+ On October 2nd, 2022.

The series is said to be an “modern, unforgettable retelling of Anne Rice’s best-selling novel,” and you can take a bite out of the brand new trailer from AMC below.

Rolin Jones (“Friday Night Lights”) is creating, showrunning, and writing the series.

The series is an adaptation of Anne Rice’s iconic gothic horror novel, initially released in 1976. In it, a two-century-year-old vampire, Louis de Pointe du Lac tells his life story and twisted vampire family saga to a reporter. It was the first in a series of novels from Rice.

“A sensuous, contemporary reinvention of Anne Rice’s revolutionary gothic novel, Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire follows Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) and Claudia’s (Bailey Bass) epic story of love, blood, and the perils of immortality, as told to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian). Chafing at the limitations of life as a Black man in 1900s New Orleans, Louis finds it impossible to resist the rakish Lestat de Lioncourt’s offer of the ultimate escape: joining him as his vampire companion.

“But Louis’s intoxicating new powers come with a violent price, and the introduction of Lestat’s newest fledgling, the child vampire Claudia, soon sets them on a decades-long path of revenge and atonement.”

Alan Taylor is directing the first two of seven total first season episodes.
