Lestat will take center stage in Season 3.
Interview With the Vampire concluded its second season Sunday night on AMC and while in some ways the series drew to a close Louis' chapter of the story, it opened up a brand new one: that of the vampire Lestat. With AMC having already announced that Interview With the Vampire will be back for a third season, the Season 2 finale did quite a bit to set up for what's next for Anne Rice's iconic vampires — here's how it went.
The season finale of Interview With the Vampire saw several major events. First, Louis finished telling his story to Daniel by revealing what happened in the wake of Claudia's death. Specifically, Louis ended up killing pretty much everyone involved with the Paris coven — especially Santiago — leaving only Sam and Armand as survivors.
The publication of Daniel's book is a major part of the setup for Season 3. As fans of Rice's novels already know, the second book in her The Vampire Chronicles series — The Vampire Lestat — saw Lestat awakened from a decades long sleep by a rock band and, through them, discovers the novel Interview With the Vampire.
AMC has already somewhat confirmed that aspects of The Vampire Lestat will inspire Season 3. Here's how they describe the new season:"In season three, resentful of the perfunctory portrayal in the trashy bestseller 'Interview With The Vampire,' the Vampire Lestat sets his story straight in a way only the Vampire Lestat can—by starting a band and going on tour. Gabrielle. Nicholas. Magnus. Marius. Those Who Must Be Kept.
"Lestat front and center, which means the show should feel like it was hijacked by Lestat," Jones said."Aesthetically, you should be ready for what a Lestat version of the show feels like and looks like."
