AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” brings the classic Anne Rice novel to the small screen this Halloween season, with the series set to premiere on AMC on October 2, 2022.

While you wait, AMC has announced this morning that “Interview with the Vampire” has already been renewed for Season 2, a huge show of confidence from the network.

At a time when many shows are being cancelled after just one season, it’s great to hear that this one is already getting at least two seasons. Permission to start getting invested!

The series is said to be an “modern, unforgettable retelling of Anne Rice’s best-selling novel.” The first two episodes will be available on AMC+ beginning on October 2, 2022.

Rolin Jones (“Friday Night Lights”) is creating, showrunning, and writing the series.

The series is an adaptation of Anne Rice’s iconic gothic horror novel, initially released in 1976. In it, a two-century-year-old vampire, Louis de Pointe du Lac tells his life story and twisted vampire family saga to a reporter. It was the first in a series of novels from Rice.

A sensuous, contemporary reinvention of Anne Rice’s revolutionary gothic novel, Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire follows Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) and Claudia’s (Bailey Bass) epic story of love, blood, and the perils of immortality, as told to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian). Chafing at the limitations of life as a Black man in 1900s New Orleans, Louis finds it impossible to resist the rakish Lestat de Lioncourt’s offer of the ultimate escape: joining him as his vampire companion.

“But Louis’s intoxicating new powers come with a violent price, and the introduction of Lestat’s newest fledgling, the child vampire Claudia, soon sets them on a decades-long path of revenge and atonement.”

Alan Taylor is directing the first two of seven total first season episodes.

The Anne Rice catalog that AMC Networks has acquired features The Vampire Chronicles series: Interview with the VampireThe Vampire LestatThe Queen of the DamnedThe Tale of the Body ThiefMemnoch The DevilThe Vampire ArmandPandoraVittorio the VampireBlood, and GoldPrince LestatPrince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis, and Blood Communion: A Tale of Prince LestatThe Lives of The Mayfair Witches series: The Witching HourLasherTaltos; and The Vampire Chronicles/The Lives Of The Mayfair Witches crossover novels: MerrickBlackwood Farm, and Blood Canticle.

On that note, a “Lives of the Mayfair Witches” series is also coming soon.
