AMC’s Interview with the Vampire (2022-) has been officially renewed for a second season, but it will be a while until fans get to see their favorite vampires back on the screen. After a successful first season, the series is set to be bigger, better, and possibly bolder, as Louis and Lestat continue their story of “love, blood, and the perils of immortality” in Interview with the Vampire Season 2.

The first season explores the first half of the book, ergo, the second season is expected to cover the second half. In its release, the first season Interview with the Vampire Received critical acclaim and was nominated for several awards. Performance of writing, narration, production value, music, and acting, in particular Jacob Anderson as Louis and Sam Reid As Lestat, received high praise. Rotten Tomatoes named it the “Best-Reviewed Salad Series of 2022” and one of the best-reviewed new series of the year. So the fact that AMC has ordered a second season of the gothic series before the premiere of the first season in September 2022 seems like an excellent call.
Created by Rolin Jones, Interview with the Vampire Focusing on vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac, in “a modern, sensual adaptation of Anne Rice’s revolutionary Gothic novel.” Louis tells the story of his life, death, and death to journalist Daniel Molloy in a drama about love, lust, betrayal, and more with Lestat de Lioncourt, or as Louis describes him, “the killer, the lover, the guide, and the creator.” The story takes a new turn, as Louis and Lestat’s relationship is complicated by the addition of the teenage Claudia, Lestat’s latest fledgling.
