Anne Rice's "MAYFAIR WITCHES" Renewed For 2nd Season At AMC
Let’s face it, TV shows are getting cancelled left and right as of late so news of a show sticking around for more than one season, especially a supernatural show, matters. AMC is all for the future of their two Anne Rice series, Interview With The Vampire and The Mayfair Witches with both getting a second season.
The Mayfair Witches is of course the main focus of this piece and the brand new series is an adaptation of Anne Rice’s novels in the “Mayfair Witches” saga, and it premiered January 8 on AMC and AMC+.
“The success of both Mayfair Witches and Interview with the Vampire once again illustrates the strength and mastery of Anne Rice’s work,” said AMC’s Mark Johnson. “The fact that these first two shows are performing so splendidly with a TV audience gives us much pride in what we’ve already done and great anticipation for the storytelling opportunities yet to come.”
Alexandra Daddario, Harry Hamlin, and Annabeth Gish star in “Mayfair Witches,” with Jack Huston (House of Gucci) playing the shape-shifting Lasher.
Esta Spalding (“Masters of Sex,” “On Becoming a God in Central Florida”) and Michelle Ashford (“Masters of Sex,” “The Pacific,” “John Adams”) are both executive producers and writers of the series. Spalding, who has an overall deal with AMC Studios, is showrunner.
“The series will focus on an intuitive young neurosurgeon who discovers that she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches. As she grapples with her newfound powers, she must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations.”
