It feels so good to have Interview With the Vampire* back. I use an asterisk because this season is Lestat’s time to shine (and called The Vampire Lestat). And the new look into the season will make you want to take a glorious bite out of it.
Titled “A New Interview Begins,” the trailer is huge for fans of Lestat (Sam Reid) and Daniel Malloy (Eric Bogosian). What makes this show so fascinating to me is the same thing that made Anne Rice’s novels so clever: You’re seeing the perspective of two different people. Part of the issue with the 1994 film is that we just got Louis’ (Brad Pitt) perspective. Lestat (Tom Cruise) didn’t tell Daniel (Christian Slater) his story.
