AMC’s adaptation of Anne Rice’s Interview With the Vampire is finally ready to launch its second season in early 2024. The WGA and SAG strikes halted production on season two, but the series got a special dispensation to continue filming in Prague. This allowed them to complete the season. Now, we’re finally getting some proper tastes of the season. In addition to announcing its release date, Interview With the Vampire season two has shared some trailers, clips, images, and more.
You can glance at all of our freshest Interview With the Vampire season two teases below.
Interview With the Vampire Season 2 Teaser and Latest Images
Alongside announcing that the second season of Interview With the Vampire would release on May 12, the show dropped a new teaser trailer and images. Let’s take a look.
There’s love, there’s rage, there’s blood aplenty, not to mention what looks like some vampiric couples counseling at work. We hope that can end without too many tears… or bites. Either way, the season is already hinting it’s going to be an intense one.
Vampires with fashion and attitude? Plus, a whole lot of blood? We’re not sure this can end well, but we’ll be tuned in for the ride.
Interview With the Vampire Season 2 First-Look Clip
AMC also released a first-look scene from season two. The clip shows Louis (Jacob Anderson) and Claudia, now played by Delainey Hayles, involved with a coven of Parisian vampires. In the scene, we see the coven attack a mansion owned by some very corrupt humans.
There’s about to be a flirtatious blood bath in Paris; that much is for certain. But we don’t know too much about the upcoming season yet.
Other Interview with the Vampire Season 2 Images and Teases
While we haven’t seen too much of Lestat yet, we do have just a couple other glimpses of him from Interview With the Vampire season two. He looks like he’s pouting already.
Additional looks reveal more of Louis, Claudia, and Armand.
More About Interview With the Vampire‘s Next Season
Interview With the Vampire ended its first season around the middle point of Anne Rice’s 1976 novel. Louis and Claudia had finally dispatched with their controlling maker Lestat (Sam Reid). Or at least that’s what they think. The big reveal came at the end of the season one finale. We learned that Louis’ human assistant in the modern day, Rashid, (Assad Zaman) was actually the vampire Armand, one of Rice’s most famous creations. Now, it looks like season two will deal with the second half of the novel, which dives deep into the relationship between Louis and Armand, and all its tragic fallout.
In the book, the American vampires Louis and Claudia flee New Orleans after attempting to kill Lestat. They eventually wind up in 19th century Paris. In France, they discover an undead coven who operates the Théâtre des Vampires. There, they murder victims on stage in front of a human audience, pretending it’s all a show. The leader of the coven was Armand, a 400-year-old vampire of powerful blood. In the AMC series, the setting for the Théâtre des Vampires is now post-World War II Europe, and it seems the coven, which includes the vicious vamp Santiago (Ben Daniels), is also a biker gang now. It will be interesting to see how Lestat, who only appears briefly in the second half of the novel, will be incorporated into the season.
Interview With the Vampire season two premieres in early 2024 on AMC.
