word of advice : MAJOR SPOILERS ahead for Interview with the Vampire season 2 finale and Anne Rice ’s The Vampire Chronicles playscript serial !
Summary
Interview with the Vampirestars Assad Zaman and Eric Bogosian want to see the telly series conform one important romance from Anne Rice ’s books onscreen . question with the Vampireseason 2had a primal focal point on Louis and his love for other vampires , in particular his family relationship with Armand and his chronicle with Lestat . By the end of season 2 , Louis breaks up with Armand after chance upon it was Lestat who saved him during the trial , ultimately making amends with his first love . At the same time , though , Armand ends up turning Daniel into a lamia .
Speaking withScreen Rant , Zaman and Bogosian , who portray Armand and Daniel respectively , address about howthey want to see the unexpected romance between their characters later duringInterview with the Vampire . The actors discourse the Devil ’s Minion chapter ofTheQueen of the Damned , while also explaining why it would be significant for the duo to have their brief romance later in the show . break out what Zaman and Bogosian had to say below :
Assad Zaman : I recollect it ’s there in a act of ways that we can explore it , but this time of year was meant to recount a unlike story . We ’ve very much focused on tell Louis ' story and finishing this chapter of Interview with the Vampire , but that does n’t intend that we have n’t spatter in elements that we do want to explore subsequently on . There ’s bits of The Vampire Lestat , there ’s bits of " Devil ’s Minion , " there ’s bits of queen mole rat of the Damned and Talamasca stuff and nonsense that we are hopefully very much going to research .
And I have always say I am more unforced to go down the " Devil ’s Minion " route with Eric or Luke or both . It might be a courteous parallel , alternative reality edition to do a three - way . [ Laughs ]
Eric Bogosian : I was play match up on reading the books when we start , and I just finished the seventh book after we got back from Prague . But way back in the beginning , we first fit each other , Assad kept say , " Yeah , we ’re hooking up . " And I had n’t gotten there yet , so I was n’t indisputable what he was talking about , but then I found out more and more .
apparently , these books are the base of the show . But in this specific case , Rolin has decide to extend the Daniel write up greatly , and there are all kinds of thing going on that are n’t in the books . We really do n’t know where this is all go . As a writer , it ’s unquestionably engrossing to observe a great author reinterpret another swell author . I think it ’s been really exciting to watch how Rolin plays this 3D chess with Anne Rice , because her world is so inventive and full of so many nooks and crannies and mind — it ’s almost too much . He has to figure out , as anybody who adapts does , how to make compromises . In some mode , this is not a via media . This is an extra matter , especially with Daniel . In the rule book , Daniel sort of peters out , and right now we ’re not doing that at all . We ’re revving up .
How Will Armand & Daniel Have Their Romantic Interaction?
However , the show has been coif the degree for later books across its two seasons . One primal example of this is Lestat ’s last scene in time of year 2 , which shows him practice piano for a band performance . This is a extension to the second book in Rice’sThe Vampire Chronicles , titledThe Vampire Lestat , the book upon whichInterview with the Vampireseason 3will be based . Because of how meticulously the show has go under up previous event in the novel series , Daniel and Armand getting together will likely have plenty of justification before it in reality happens .
SinceThe Queen of the Damnedis the third book in the series , it would n’t be surprising for a possible season 4 to establish a romantic connectedness between the two . This would allow an redundant season of growth while stay true to when the events happen in the book of account . Even if their kinship is remixed , as much ofInterview with the Vampire ’s story already is , the show can readily return on it hap uniquely , but in a way that finger exchangeable to how it ’s approached in the book .
Anne Rice’sThe Vampire Chroniclesconsists of 13 books .
