AMC’s “Interview With the Vampire” Series Bites Into a Director!

Anne Rice was recently shopping around a massive television and film package for both The Vampire Chronicles and The Lives of the Mayfair Witches, you may recall, with AMC Networks acquiring the package last year and therefore landing the rights to all novels in both series.

The first to get a small-screen adaptation is “Interview With the Vampire”, which was ordered to series earlier this summer.

Many of AMC’s series have been heavily director-driven (see “Preacher” for example), which is what makes this announcement so juicy.

Variety reports that Alan Taylor will direct “Interview With the Vampire” for AMC.

What kind of vibe can we expect? Well, Taylor, who will helm the first two episodes of the vampire series, also directed multiple episodes of “Mad Men,” including the pilot, as well as “Game of Thrones,” “Sex and the City,” “Six Feet Under,” “Deadwood,” “Boardwalk Empire,” “The West Wing,” and “Lost”.

The “Interview With the Vampire” saga of course centers on vampires Louis and Lestat, characters played by Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise in the 1996 feature film directed by Neil Jordan.

“Interview With the Vampire” will be an eight-episode series with an eye toward a 2022 debut on both AMC and AMC Plus. Rolin Jones will serve as writer, executive producer, and showrunner on the series under his overall deal with AMC Studios. Mark Johnson will executive produce under his overall deal with AMC Studios as well, with Anne Rice and Christopher Rice also executive producing.
