6Akasha
The Queen of the Damned
AMCcited " Those Who Must Be Kept " as newfangled characters forInterview with the Vampireseason 3 , which playscript readers will roll in the hay refers to Akasha , the Queen of the Damned . Namesake of the third book inThe Vampire Chronicles , The Queen of the Damned , Akasha was one of the most ancient vampires awake . She seem towards the end ofThe Vampire Lestat , securing her place inInterview with the Vampireseason 3 .
Interview with the Vampireseason 3 is expected sometime in 2025 .
Akasha was tragically Aaliyah ’s last theatrical role in cinemain the 2002 movie adaptationQueen of the Damned , as she starred alongsideStuart Townsend ’s Lestat . Her seductive Akasha hit all the good notes , soInterview with the Vampireseason 3 ’s Akasha has big shoes to fill . If the source stuff is anything to go by , the show ’s Akasha may involve a trip to a sunny island of some sort for Lestat . It looks like he involve a holiday , but this may not be the R&R opportunity ordinarily associate with sunny islands .
5Enkil
The other one-half of the " Those Who Must Be Kept " nickname , Enkil plays a fundamental function in both the source of vampires and the plot ofThe Vampire Lestat , although not appearing throughout most of it . Vampire traditional knowledge fiends will be proud of to learn of the cosmos of Enkil , as they get to learn more about where lamia come from and how they function . Enkil was n’t intheQueen of the Damnedmovie , soInterview with the Vampireseason 3 has a fresh slate to adapt from .
Enkil ’s villainy could make an important enhancer for the show ’s suite of anti - hero .
Enkil could link up the show as a powerful threat to Lestat and whatever friends he may have at the clock time - he ’s an exemplar fromThe Vampire Chroniclesofa fend for character that plays a mostly counter role throughout . position another vampire scoundrel of true Anne Rice caliber on the table would make Lestat , Louis , and Armand look nice in comparison . Enkil ’s villainy could make an important foil for the show ’s retinue of anti - hero . Then again , Anne Rice and Rolin Jones both tapped the delight and human race of giving every villain a prospect to speak , and that is never unwelcome here .
Based on Anne Rice’s novel series that began in 1976, Interview with the Vampire is a gothic horror fantasy series that explores the life of Louis de Pointe du Lac through an interview with a journalist. Told through flashbacks of Louis' life during the interview, the series examines Louis' relationship with the vampire that turned him, Lestat de Lioncourt, and a teenage girl named Claudia, whom he turns. The series is the first of Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe media franchise.
Queen Of The Damned is the forgettable sequel to Anne Rice ’s Interview With The Vampire but Aaliyah made the role of Queen Akasha iconic .
4Magnus
The Vampire Lestat
A most combative part alluded to briefly inInterview with the Vampire , Magnus was presented by Lestat as a Silence - of - the - Lambs - eccentric serial publication killerof a vampire who " collected " young men of Lestat ’s strong-arm type . One of the theatrical role confirmed to joinInterview with the Vampireseason 3 , Magnus , will likely be a character used to search Lestat ’s past , like in the books . However , he may seem in more than just flashbacks - the show has gone off - script before , and it will again .
show a lamia in this igniter raises interesting question in the show - after all , they are all basically nonparallel killers . This was a point press by the ever - tangible Daniel Molloy in the first two seasons , and it was an absolutely decisive spot for the show to nail , and it did so with aplomb . The show ’s ego - awareness is what sets it apart from previous adaptationsand makes it feel most like an Anne Rice novel , with the novel ' sound psychological portrait coming from looking at their eccentric from multiple Angle and character perspectives .
As vampire - front horror - fantasy , the show and books romanticized kill and death , often in suitably romanticize period options . But when Daniel brought the show and viewers back to the present day , he whipped the show out of repugnance - fantasy and into police procedural musical mode , slamming the serial - killing reality of vampire onto the tabular array . This literary genre - switching is as Anne Rice as it gets , and frees the show from the constraints former adaptations suffered . Perhaps the only difference between Louis and Magnus is their heart color- but that will be for audiences to decide inInterview with the Vampireseason 3 .
3Marius
The Godhead of the show ’s premier bad guy rope , Armand , Marius has a lot to answer for and a write up to tell inInterview with the Vampireseason 3 . As anyone who has understand the books cognise , Armand is far from a " bad guy cable " in the grand scheme of things . But anyone who has find the show could probably attest to this too , with Jones and Armand doer Assad Zaman both painting stratum upon layer of charitable shade onto him . Like father , like son -Marius is as far away from a clearly - trim back baddie as Armand , and indeed , most Anne Rice characters .
Marius ' accounting entry toInterview with the Vampireseason 3 may blow up outcome in a big agency , with his power inThe Vampire Chroniclesa societal one as well as a forcible one . One of the oldest , but also one of the kind , he was hue by Rice with the form of maturity that invited cheeky , apologist reactions to his ancient pederasty ( Medieval times do n’t count).Marius was a rare diplomatist in a uncongenial populace , and it will be interesting to see how he comes across inInterview with the Vampireseason 3 .
Interview with the Vampire season 3 is set to heighten the relationship between Assad Zaman ’s Armand and Eric Bogosian ’s Daniel , and I ca n’t wait .
2Nicholas
Nicholas will be another challenging figure to bring to the small screen , as Lestat ’s sure-enough fire . IfInterview with the Vampireseason 3 will state Lestat ’s story , Nicholas can be wait to take on a major role . Lestat pass a stack ofThe Vampire Lestattelling his origin story in an autobiography that was engraft into the schoolbook , represent the work created and published by Lestat in - universe , in response to the publication of Louis ' interview with Daniel . In this part of the book , Nicki was Lestat ’s first capital loveand first great brokenheartedness .
The first great sexual love and the first expectant heartbreak , normally involving the same somebody , stay a cosmic connection for life , and it is this formative influence that Nicholas had on Lestat . His presence is therefore non - negotiable inInterview with the Vampire . Saint Nicholas really already cropped up in the show , making an appearance inInterview with the Vampireseason 2 .
1Gabrielle
Gabrielle must be one of the best characters in Anne Rice ’s world , and is an important character inThe Vampire Lestat , so her addition toInterview with the Vampireseason 3 was inevitable . Some would indicate that it ’s a shame that the books did n’t drop longer on her and instead ruminated on the Mayfair witches from Anne Rice ’s other series , Lives of the Mayfair Witches . Now support by AMC , her cellular inclusion could make for one of television ’s best explorations of motherhood , if she gets the same psychological deepness and realisation as otherInterview with the Vampirecharacters .
Anne Rice’sLives of the Mayfair Witchesbook serial was consecutivelyThe Witching Hour , Lasher , andTaltos .
Described by Anne Rice as an unfearing explorer , Gabrielle made up an exploration of genderinThe Vampire Lestatwhich reflected Anne Rice ’s own gender mental confusion . This is a pertinent topic for a contemporary audience that the man is ready for , after Hollywood ’s fair but drab - in - comparison attempts to conform Anne Rice thus far . What ’s most exciting is how on earth Lestat have a bun in the oven to beguile Louis ' love - hatred vim with the love - hatred energy of Gabrielle - his very own mother - inInterview with the Vampireseason 3 .
