I've never seen Jacob Anderson featured in an out-of-character, casual interview before. It's a pleasure to discover he's so disarmingly charming.

I cannot WAIT for season 2. What an incredible show.

the way I SCREAMED at 7:20 !!! imagine an interview with the vampire parody where everything between Louis and Lestat happens on a zoom call. the apsurdity of it all

I'm amazed at how real this feels. It has all the depth of the original with a perfectly logical modern twist. Ended up binging the whole series in one go.

The cast is amazing and these men are gorgeous 😍

this show is so good. as a AR fan having read the books and seen the movies, i feel that this adaptation is the most true to her style, despite all the story change. i actually enjoy the changes, which are done well enough to give a similar, yet different, interesting background story while retaining the essence of the relationships and themes AR penned. I am so excited to see what they do with the mayfair witches.

What makes the series so special is the RESPECT with the source material. ♥ Can't wait for the next season!

I absolutely love that you can see how much they respect and truly cherish anne rice's books and also all the hard work they’re putting

Unlike the books, where all the characters are white. This has a more authentic feel to it . Even the Africans were white in the books. This just makes more sense. Only a few people can believe that there a no Black people in New Orleans in the 20th century. Good job Show runners !

This show is absolutely incredible. Such an incredible adaption of the books!! The cast and crew did such a phenomenal job and the love and respect for Anne rice’s works is palpable in the show and this interview!! I’m so excited for season 2!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Yes, it deviated from the book but AMC still managed to capture Anne Rices vision with such an amazing cast.

When Daniel told Louis "I'm an old man, with all the triggers that comes with it?" I felt that deeply in my entire soul! 💀💀😆😆😆

The first episode was awesome! I don’t mind the changes at all, I actually really love the fresh take on this series. I know some people hate change, but from the point of view of an artist, I can really appreciate the thought they put into everything they changed and why. This is their interpretation of a classic, and I love a fresh take! Sam Reid as Lestat is amazing. He feels more like Lestat than Tom Cruise did, that’s for sure. From his charm, to his temper, and the way he can’t stifle his laughter when something amuses him.. this feels like the Lestat we fell in love with in the books. His obsession with Louis and the way he kills indiscriminately, effortlessly; this is the Brat Prince, not the monstrous villain Cruise played him as. Louis’s character, though much has changed, the essentials are there: his wealth and power, his brother’s death, his depression.. Jacob Anderson is charming and I love this version of Louis. Can’t wait to meet Claudia, and Armand!

This show is a delight which I've been craving since forever. I love all of it, every little detail and effort they put through not just paid off, but became something extraordinary and timeless. To what I owed it I don't wanna know, but I love every single one of them. A masterpiece made for her eyes only. Thank you thank you thank you. Words ain't enough to describe how eternally grateful I am.

Here is one of the many new readers who just discovered Anne Rices's books and universe all thanks to this amazing show. 💖 thank tou AMC for such a fantastic adaptation and thanks to the cast! They are all so freaking talented! 👏👏👏👏

Interview with the vampire is one of the very best tv shows ever and one of 2022 best tv shows

I started reading the books as a teenager back in the early 2000s, and I absolutely adore this show. It's made me want to revisit those books that I still have on my bookshelf. I hope it gets many more seasons and that we get to see all our favourite vampires come to life once again on our screens!

LOVED IT. AMC better be promoting the hell out of this because everyone needs to watch the show!

crying over this i cant wait for whats to come

As someone who's an Anne Rice fan and has watched the original film multiple times, I was little nervous if they were going to go away from the source material (like what happened with the movie, "Queen of the Damned"). But after seeing a lot of this, including the trailer, it looks really interesting as a new adaptation, especially since we're diving into the Jazz Era in New Orleans. Plus I'm so relieved that they're showing more of Lestat and Louis' relationship. They look so gorgeous together! *fangirl squeal* So I'm hopeful and I'm willing to give this a chance.

It’s so good, THIS is how you adapt material to make it fresh but still keeping the feel of the source material.❤

Absolutely amazing show. Been a fan of books since the 90's. Was originally scratching my head with changes they were doing and wondering where they will go with this but the show blew me away! The changes they made actually made the story fresh and better for a TV show! Amazing writing, the absolutely brilliant cast and acting, the cinematography, the costumes, the atmosphere.. everything was top notch on this show and I can't wait for season 2!! I do wish they respected some of Anne's wishes she expressed over the years, but overall I think they did fantastic job and honored her books and characters! ❤❤❤

The first two episodes are AMAZING!!! It strays heavily from the source material but in a very smart way that gives new life to a story we already know. The lead actors are PHENOMENAL, especially Sam Reid's Lestat who feels much more like the way I envisioned him then Tom Cruise's solid performance in the original movie.

I love these guys so much 😍😍 They are fantastic as Lestat and Louis.

the guy who said "when you see it, that's it. this is the only version of the interview with your vampire" smth along those lines and he's right. he is right. i love the story, they adapted it perfectly. i couldn't ask for more. i see this show, and think this is The canon i know and love. amazing show. thank you for bringing it to fruition!

It would have been so cool if Anne Rice were alive to see her work given the care, love, and sophisticated storytelling they deserve when adapting. Season 1 somehow elevated the source material, for me at least. Can't wait for season 2 (The Yellow Dress!) Re-read Interview in 2 days and now into 60 pages of Lestat.

I’ve never seen the previous movie nor read the books but Loved this series 10/10 😊 can’t wait till season 2 🎉

You did well, guys. All of you ♡♡♡ Thank you for this show, and the unapologetic Gothic horror-romance is all fans could wish for ;)

Such a amazing show

This show was incredible!!

I’ve been rewatching the clips and trailers as I reread my favorite parts of Anne Rice’s books. It looks like there’s going to be such much layers and character development in this show- I’m super excited!!!

I can't wait for Season 2.....

I am definitely the generation they were talking bout that do not know the books. And this show has definitely brought me to Anne Rice! 💖

yaaaayyyy.... behind the scene part is what I am so excited & definitely looking forward to watch because it is as equally entertaining to watch as the series itself ❤❤

As mentioned, BB, BCS, HACF, TWD, and now IWTV, AMC makes my favorite shows!!! Kudos to all involved, can't wait for S2!!!

Wonderful show!Cant waiting for season two

çocukken izlediğim en sevdiğim çizgi filmime yeni bölüm gelmiş gibi bir heyecanla kitlenip izledim sırıtarak 42 dakika boyunca hiç bitmesini istemediğim türden bir şeydi cidden çok güzel bir dizi evreni olacak, hissediyorum, rez alıyorum

It is already one of the best series I've ever seen. The acting is superb, along with great script writing and set design. It was clearly made with love and great care. Ann Rice would love it.

It’s a great show!!

I like how the interviewer has a Anthony Bourdain look to him..

Incredible show! I am hooked! Love seeing Creole vampires and old New Orleans. Beautiful.

If anyone is confused about the queer storyline being more prominent, I invite you to look into the Sleeping Beauty series that Anne Rice wrote under her pseudonym before Interview. Also, if folks think that wealthy Black people that had plantations didn't also have slaves, I encourage you to do your research. Finally, research the history of Louisiana, the Creole community, and Jim Crow laws across the South.

First episode was damn good

Fantastic job all the way around 👏, I'm itching for the new season and can't wait for the characters to be brought back to life!!

I love behind the scenes also hope to see gag reel/ bloopers of this show

Amazing show, really good. I hope more people find out about it. It's too good to be unseen.

IM SO READY FOR SZN 2😣😣I NEED MORE

I like the little Easter egg in one of the episodes where Daniel is looking at a painting by Marius de Romanus, I wonder who going to be cast as him, since they got him so wrong in Queen of the Damned 2002, I want to see him as he is describing in The Vampire Lestat as being so ancient that his skin almost like marble and pale with long blond hair and is over six foot much like the book

Its just so good # great acting and oh my god the score is out of this world

Looks amazing! I hope AMC will adapt all the books in the Vampire and Witches series!!!

I LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVE THIS SHOW MORE THAN ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNY SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just wow.

This is my favorite of the new major fantasy/horror shows. Jacob Anderson and Sam Reid simply kills it!

I need s2 nowww

This had me tearing up, I'm so excited!!!

Thank you for this!! I can not wait to watch!

I’m hooked after watching 20 minutes.

anne is my favorite writer ever. its nice to see that she is so loved

🖤

I am beyond excited, this looks so beautiful. From the sets to the costumes to the makeup, it feels lavish and so detail oriented. It may be different from the book and the movie, but I am willing to keep an open mind. I really hope this show is successful, I would really love to see the other books hit the screen.

I am obsessed either way Lestat now! Thanks 🙄

I am HOOKED!!!!

How can anyone not love this series? It brings back Anne Rice. The books are so special, and this is just another interpretation. The actors who play Louis and Lestat are awesome. The look in their eyes when they look at each other is precious. It is pure love. Claudia brings a bit of comedy to this dark tragedy. I have loved Anne Rice's vampires since 1976 and I'm so happy that they brought her genius back to life. Love it. Almost makes me cry at times.

Being a fan who’s read the books & watched the IwtV movie as well as QotD, I’m so excited for a fresh new take on this wonderful story. I love how thoughtful the production team was in making this new adaptation and the changes they decided to go with. Can’t wait to watch! ❤

The original will always be my favorite but this one looks amazing! Can't wait to see it.

❤

Lestat de lioncourt was definitely is one of my favorite characters ever and I definitely fell in love with him to🖤

I ❤ how they call Louis

I was mad that they made Louis a pimp because it seemed so predictable but this actually looks interesting and makes me want to watch it.

Not having babies is not heartbreaking, lmfao.

Wasn’t sure if I’d even like this series but with three episodes in I am already in love with it. Everything is done impeccably from the set, the costumes, the writing, but the acting even more so. I hope all of the books get this treatment.

Oh I LOVE that idea that Interview With The Vampire was the first interview and the (most) of the rest of the chronicles is the contents of this new interview... very clever

Episode one was fantastic wow bravo to this actor playing lestat he killed it !!!! You can really tell that these writers weren’t just the typical Hollywood types they were actual fans of Anne and what her legacy was in American literature and that’s why it’s succeeding! Listening to them when speaking on her passing you can tell her work is in great hands I can not wait to see queen of the dammed and how they go about it! To the folks who bashed it b4 it debuted called it woke trash even b4 giving it a chance shame on you because it just shows you never really knew who Anne Rice was & what she meant to the goth world of the 80s the lgbtq community and all those who felt like outliers in society! My wife and I absolutely loved this show

Sam Reid is Lestat. Makes what Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Stuart Townsend did look like shit. Jacob Anderson is delivering! The chemistry between them is phenomenal.

Can't wait to see this, looks good!

As a huge fan of the novels since 1992 and of the movie (for superficial reasons) since 1994, I am beyond thrilled of this new adaptation/ re-imagination of the story. It's much darker, more complex, more sensual, more brutal and more hypnotic. The trailers alone capture the tone and spirit of the novels despite of all the changes made. I can tell that it will be a character (more fleshed out) driven show instead of just a bunch of plot points from the novel. It is called Interview with the Vampire and not Interview with the Plantation Owner. The novel that I read was about a self-loathing human turned into a self-loathing vampire. Throughout the novel Louis was asking questions about the nature of good and evil and what it means for his vampiric existence. He experiences love, loss and grief as human and as vampire. It's about him finally finding his humanity as a vampire (which is ironic). It is a seductive, hypnotic, brutal and violent journey filled with sadness and loneliness (thanks to his toxic relationships with his vampiric companions). It was never about Louis just being a plantation owner. For those of you disappointed and upset about the changes, just go watch a documentary about a plantation owner in the 1700"s. This adaptation isn't for you.

I must have seen the 1994 movie over a dozen times. I admit I had some reservations when I first heard about the remake, but after seeing this amazing Behind the Scenes, I'm so ready. Everything looks and feels so much richer and more nuanced. The same dark forlorn soul. Can't wait!

Absolutely hypnotic, fierce and exciting. Loving every second. Thank you Anne Rice and all the cast and directors for making her books come to life.

I can’t wait

does that mean it's out and only on amc

I always imagined that in the modern day. Louis is always wearing some type of suit, while lestat after the 80s he's wearing some form of Rockstar swagger.

Definitely makes me want to read the book! 💯

The trailer didn't sell me but this is. I can't wait.

AWWWW, so ahead of their time, a gay interracial couple!!! Totally possible in that era... IF YOU'RE A VAMPIRE!!!!!

How come I cant watch (epi 2) on regular AMC !!!?? UUUUUGGGG I hate yall!

Please give us 3 season and finished story dont be netflix or max just start so people pay sub and they drop it bc of money

I love that they did their auditions by zoom all from different parts of the world and in different time zones. It was 3 in the morning for Sam, 6 in the morning for the producers, a different time for Jacob, etc. So cool!

This is very interesting bts video❤ ty for showing us

You know I have to say this show was great and Anne Rice would have been so happy with this new adaption of Interview With A Vampire and The Mayfair Witches. This has a new feel to it and brings New Orleans vibe back to live and its alot better than 1994 Interview With A Vampire were Louis & Lestat and Claudia were always fighting and they made Claudia into a brat in the flim and this one is different. Sam Reid nailed Lestat were as Tom Cruise failed. Brad Pitt who played Louis wanted out of this project and there was tension on the set with Tom Cruise & Brad Pitt and in this new adaption they got it right**** I can't wait for season 2 and The Mayfair Witches as well I hope they do The Vampire Lestat Queen Of The Dammed Memonch The Devil and all the vampire stories that Anne Rice wrote on to the big screen...

I NEEDED this in my life thank you

I'm so excited for this! I have to figure out how to buy a subscription to AMC just so I can watch this. DO they have their own streaming platform? Can I watch it on other streaming platforms?

Seeing this has changed my mind about the show. I was having hesitant feelings on watching it. Now I’m recording the full series. Looking forward to seeing the beautiful filmmaking that has unfolded here. Bravo 👏

Honeyyyyyy this show is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Just binge watched all of season 1 (except the upcoming final episode) on Halloween. It truly IS fantastic!! I am one of those people for whom reading the Interview with a Vampire was a pivotal moment in my life, all those years ago. Am truly impressed by how they’ve tweaked things by making it a “second interview” and added the complexity of race to the already complex equation, but still managed to remain true & respectful to the original work… carrying the spirit brilliantly!! Thank you for this behind the scenes also! Really enjoyed 💯

I am so excited about this series but it will not be available in my country. I want to watch it legally and support the show. I will have to try to purchase it elsewhere.

I LOVE this show! And I LOVE these characters!❤

Vampires pretending to be human pretending to be vampires…❤❤❤❤

Everyone is great, but Sam Reid is a revelation. Absolutely perfect Lestat!

I can’t wait! 6 days!

I have started watching the new "Interview with a Vampire" and I am really enjoying it. My favorite scene was when Louis finally got with LeStat and was floating in the air during an intimacy scene. This showed literally that LeStat had gotten "into" Louis on a very elemental way - which is scary and dark.

The troll brigade never stops commenting in the comment section, but they amount to nothing when you see the ridiculous level of detail, work, and love the cast and crew obviously put into this show. I'm happy to hear the reviewers raving about it and I'm eagerly looking forward to watching it.
