Interview with the Vampire Season 2 Takes Over IG Account: Good Sign?
A multi-post teaser image for Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire has taken over the show's Instagram account - a good Season 2 sign?
Okay, so here's what we know as of late regarding the second season of Rolin Jones' (Perry Mason, Weeds) Sam Reid, Jacob Anderson, Delainey Hayles & Eric Bogosian-starring Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire. We know that it's set to premiere sometime in 2024 – but we don't know exactly when… yet. Along with that, Anderson had a lot to offer regarding what viewers can expect from Season 2 – covering a number of topics during a recent interview. That included discussing the main themes for this season, as well as the dynamic between Louis (Anderson) and Claudia (Hayles) now that Lestat (Reid) is "gone." In addition, Anderson teased how Louis' experiences this season impacted him personally, how the Dubai storyline is going to get "really explosive," and more. In addition, the actor touched upon Louis' relationship with Armand (Assad Zaman) and what it was like getting to work with the newest addition to the cast, teasing what the new season has in store for Hayles' Claudia. Now, we took that to be a good sign that we might get the new season earlier in the year than later in the year. Further fueling our speculation? The following image took over the "Immortal Universe" Instagram account today to kick off the new year – wishing us "Good Night" is what feels like a sign of things to come (and we know that there are already some exclusive images floating around out there).
Here's a look back at the extended clip from the second season of AMC's Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire, along with an official overview – followed by a look at what else we know about the upcoming season:
The interview continues. In the year 2022, the vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac recounts his life story to journalist Daniel Molloy. Picking up from the bloody events in New Orleans in 1940 when Louis and teen fledgling Claudia conspired to kill the Vampire Lestat de Lioncourt, Louis tells of his adventures in Europe, a quest to discover Old World Vampires and the Theatre Des Vampires in Paris, with Claudia. It is in Paris that Louis first meets the Vampire Armand. Their courtship and love affair will prove to have devastating consequences both in the past and in the future, and Molloy will probe to get to the truths buried within the memories.
