AMC+'s "Interview With the Vampire" series is a new adaptation of Anne Rice's classic series of novels following Louis de Pointe du Lac, Lestat de Lioncourt, and their vampire cohort. Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise brought the characters to life in the 1994 film adaptation, but the new series, which premiered in 2022, leans into the queer subtext of Rice's work, making it explicit, and it changes the setting of the story, too. Jacob Anderson plays Louis, now a Black New Orleans businessman, and Sam Reid plays the always-wild Lestat. Season two is on the way in 2024.
