This just in-
it would appear that Eric Bogosian (“Uncut Gems,” “Succession“) has joined the undead. Well, kind of. AMC has announced Bogosian as part of the cast of their upcoming “Interview With a Vampire,” based on the works of the late great Anne Rice.
AMC says Bogosian will play reporter Daniel Molloy, who conducts the interview with Louis. Fans of “Interview” will recall Christian Slater played the character of Daniel in the 1994 feature film.
While Bogosian is a tremendous actor- he remains my #1 choice to play the late Anthony Bourdain in a project- he is most assuredly NOT how I picture Daniel. Without going into too many spoilers, Daniel becomes a very integral part of the vampire Armand’s life later in the Vampire Chronicles.
He’ll join previously announced cast Sam Reid as Lestat, Jacob Anderson as Louis, Bailey Bass as Claudia, and Assad Zaman as Rashid. Alan Taylor directs the first two episodes, which will air on AMC and AMC+ sometime later in 2022.
We’ll let you know what we hear about this and other news.
Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
