Overview
- Netflix has added both seasons of Interview With the Vampire to its global catalog, bringing the series to a wider audience nearly a year after Season 2 aired on AMC and AMC+.
- The series first premiered on AMC in 2022 and reimagines Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles with a contemporary lens on character, setting, and identity.
- Season 2, now on Netflix, follows the Paris-set Théâtre des Vampires arc from the books without revealing major plot turns.
- Cast highlights include Jacob Anderson as Louis de Pointe du Lac and Sam Reid as Lestat, with Delainey Hayles taking over the role of Claudia from Bailey Bass and new additions such as Ben Daniels and Roxane Duran.
- Critics have praised the show’s performances and its frank engagement with queer and racial themes, with the AMC-to-Netflix windowing strategy cited as a way to boost viewership and cultural reach.
