Lestat’s Music to Debut in ‘Talamasca’ This October 26!

URGENT UPDATE: Fans of Anne Rice’s universe are in for a surprise! The highly anticipated series Talamasca: The Secret Order is set to premiere on October 26, 2023, and it will unveil Lestat’s musical career in a thrilling crossover moment.

As the wait for the third season of Interview With the Vampire intensifies, this new series promises to deliver exclusive content that fans won’t want to miss. Mark Lafferty, co-showrunner of Talamasca, confirmed in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that viewers should pay close attention during episode five. “If a viewer is listening very closely in episode five, they might hear something coming through the speakers of a bar that is a direct tie to another of the series,” said Lafferty. This hint teases that fans could catch a glimpse (and sound) of Lestat’s music career.

The interconnectedness of AMC’s Anne Rice Immortal Universe is a key feature of this new series.

Additionally, character Felix, played by Gabriel Freilich, made an appearance in The Mayfair Witches during its second season, showcasing the series’ commitment to intertwining characters and plots across titles.

Lafferty elaborated, “There are certain parts of this story that are meaningful in these other stories and can suggest that the whole universe is sort of talking to each other.” This collaborative effort between the showrunners of Talamasca, Interview With the Vampire, and The Mayfair Witches aims to create a cohesive storyline that captivates loyal fans while inviting new viewers.

Adding to the excitement, executive producer Mark Johnson hinted at future expansions of the universe. He indicated that characters and storylines from Talamasca will influence upcoming seasons of Interview With the Vampire and The Mayfair Witches. Johnson noted, “We’d like to pursue three or four other titles… we’ll have [another] one soon enough,” leaving fans speculating about what’s next in the Anne Rice canon.

As the premiere date approaches, anticipation for Talamasca: The Secret Order is at an all-time high. The first two episodes will debut on October 26 on AMC and AMC+.
