We’re filming in Toronto. There’s gonna be a lot of music . . . I’m really looking forward to unleashing rock star Lestat into the world. — Sam Reid.
Season 3 of AMC’s new take on Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire books will tell vampire rock star Lestat (Sam Reid)’s side of the story to a journalist.
First song Long Face:
Production moved from New Orleans, with cameras rolling mid-June in Toronto.
Seasons one and two told vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson)’s story of love,, blood and the perils of immortality to a journalist.
Interview with the Vampire centers on the life story of vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson) as told to veteran journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian) to whom he previously gave an unpublished interview in 1973.
An affluent black man in the 1910s New Orleans, Louis is romanced and later made a vampire by the charismatic Lestat de Lancourt (Sam Reid).But Louis struggles with his humanity, and the introduction of Lestat’s newest fledgling, the teenage vampire Claudia (Delainey Hayles), only strains their relationship further.
In the present, Daniel begins to doubt the veracity of Louis’ story, noting differences from the earlier version.
