Anne Rice's timeless cosmos ventures into San Diego Comic-Con 2025
News Article: Talamasca: The Secret Order and The Vampire Lestat Premiere on AMC
Get ready, vampire fans! Two highly anticipated series set in Anne Rice's Immortal Universe are set to premiere on AMC this October.
First up, Talamasca: The Secret Order is a new series premiering on October 26, 2025. This show follows a young man named Guy Anatole (played by Nicholas Denton) as he is carefully recruited into the Talamasca, a secret society tasked with tracking and containing supernatural beings such as witches, vampires, and werewolves around the world. The series is not a direct adaptation of one of Rice's novels, but rather a show that ties together elements from multiple novels.
The show's plot explores the covert operations and complex internal dynamics of the Talamasca organization and how it navigates threats posed by these mystical entities. The series stars Elizabeth McGovern as Helen, the mysterious recruiter, and William Fichtner as Jasper, among others.
In a behind-the-scenes look, showrunner John Lee Hancock describes Talamasca: The Secret Order as a "spy show".
Meanwhile, the third season of Interview with the Vampire is returning, now titled The Vampire Lestat. The series will focus on Lestat's life as a modern-day rockstar, with composer Daniel Hart playing a significant role in the music for the series. Jacob Anderson will still play a vital role as Louis, but the specifics of his involvement are still under wraps.
Akasha, an all-powerful character, is likely to appear in The Vampire Lestat. The show's third season is anticipated to be as chaotic, wonderful, and dreadful as Lestat's character. The exclusive teaser of The Vampire Lestat has been shared, showcasing a blend of lighthearted and serious elements.
Several new characters are joining The Vampire Lestat, including Jennifer Ehle as Gabriella de Lioncourt, Damien Atkins as Magnus, Christopher Heyerdahl as Marius de Romanus, Ella Ballentine as Baby Jenks, and Jeanine Serralles as Christine Claire. Baby Jenks' presence in the series indicates a connection to Lestat's past.
Eric Bogosian announced at SDCC that Daniel Molloy will cross over into the Talamasca world, deepening his character's connection to the organization.
Stay tuned for more updates on these thrilling series set in Anne Rice's Immortal Universe!
