What Interview With The Vampire Season 3 Can Learn From 2002's Failed Anne Rice Adaptation
Sam Reid's well-received portrayal of Lestat will continue in season 3, promising to maintain exceptional writing and story focus. (https://screenrant.com/interview-with-the-vampire-season-3-queen-of-the-damned-movie-lessons/)
Unlike 1994's Interview With the Vampire, I didn't see Queen of the Damned when it was in theaters, I bought the DVD, mostly because I like Stuart Townsend as an actor. I haven't seen the film in years and I don't even remember if I liked it, liked parts, or hated it. Considering it's going to be a long time before Season 3 of the TV series comes out, maybe one of these days I should drag out the DVD and watch it to see what I think...

The Most Exciting Fantasy TV Shows Coming In 2026
Who needs reality when fantasy television provides all the thrills, chills, mayhem, and pizazz you'll ever need? Here's a batch of upcoming unreal programs. (https://www.tvline.com/2076071/most-exciting-fantasy-shows-premiering-2026/)
The Vampire Lestat
For two seasons, AMC's "Interview with the Vampire" has been one of the best shows on television. The centerpiece of the network's burgeoning Anne Rice universe, the series packs romance, high drama, vampire action, gorgeous cinematography, and some of the best writing you'll find anywhere into one tight package.
With "Interview with the Vampire" Season 3, AMC is launching a soft rebrand of the show as the story moves from the first novel in Rice's "Vampire Chronicles" series to the second, titled "The Vampire Lestat." That means that Sam Reid, who plays the eponymous French vampire on the show, is back in the spotlight after taking a comparatively small role in Season 2. The new season also looks to be adopting some fresh aesthetics, with a gothic rock and roll angle that Reid is sure to shine in — and makes us wonder if Season 3 also pulls from Rice's third vampire book, "The Queen of the Damned."
If you've already been on board for the prior seasons, you know this is one of the big TV events of 2026. But if you haven't started yet, it's also the perfect time to start. As of this writing, both prior seasons are streaming on Netflix, as well as on AMC+. Do yourself a favor and check out Jacob Anderson in perhaps the most underappreciated starring performance on TV right now.
