AMC has formally renewed Interview With the Vampire for a 3rd season simply days forward of its ominously titled season two finale, “And That’s the Finish of It. There’s Nothing Else.” The Anne Rice adaptation’s third season will lastly see Lestat enter his Queen of the Damned section. Nu-metal followers, rejoice.
Based on an AMC press launch: “In season three, resentful of the perfunctory portrayal within the trashy bestseller Interview With the Vampire, the Vampire Lestat units his story straight in a method solely the Vampire Lestat can—by beginning a band and occurring tour. Gabrielle. Nicholas. Magnus. Marius. These Who Should Be Saved. They be part of Louis, Armand, Molloy, Sam, Raglan, Fareed, and others we will’t let you know about but on a horny pilgrimage throughout area, time, and trauma. No Auto-Tuning. No Set off Warnings. All Feels Amplified.”
Along with Lestat’s bandmates, the synopsis mentions Fareed—a personality with ties to Akasha, the primary vampire in existence—who later turns into a serious participant within the Prince Lestat trilogy. This, tied with the promise of the a “attractive pilgrimage throughout area, time, and trauma” suggests the sequence is able to get bizarre with Rice’s novels—a saga which ultimately sees a Freaky Friday-inspired body-swapping arc with a kleptomaniac, the vengeful spirit of an unborn twin bitten by a vampire within the womb, and extraterrestrial beings called Replimoids plotting the destruction of the lost city of Atlantis. On second thought, perhaps that’s a narrative higher saved for season 4…
Interview With the Vampire’s season two finale arrives Sunday on AMC and AMC+.
