The series features Sam Reid as Lestat de Lioncourt, Jacob Anderson as Louis de Pointe du Lac, Bailey Bass as Claudia, Assad Zaman as Rashid, and Eric Bogosian as Daniel Molloy.

Rolin Jones and Mark Johnson will serve as executive producers.

The series consists of 8 episodes and is based on the 1976 Anne Rice of the same name and is the first entry into The Vampire Chronicles book series.

“Interview With the Vampire” follows an 18th century Lord, Louis, as he recounts his story and tumultuous relationship with his maker – Lestat – to an eager interviewer and biographer. The upcoming series is not the first adaptation of the novel.

In 1994, the novel was adapted into a critically acclaimed feature movie that shared the same title and starred Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Kirsten Dunst, Antonio Banderas, and Christian Slater.

In 2020, the network acquired the rights to The Vampire Chronicles book series, as well as the Lives of the Mayfair Witches trilogy for potential film and TV projects.

In 2021, Interview With the Vampire, the first of the intended projects, was given an eight-episode series order.

“Interview With The Vampire” is set to premiere on AMC+ and AMC later in 2022.
