annericelover Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Hey everyone, with the success of the Twilight films, it is no surprise that Ane Rice's Vampire Chronicles will once again be unleashed on the big screen. It isn't clear yet if they will begin a new or just continue where they left off, but so far Robert Downey Jr is said to be in close negotiations to play Lestat(played before by Tom Cruise and Stuart Townsend). I'm also unsure if Anne Rice will have anything to do with the production, considering her new path.

Stavros Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I liked the original Interview with a Vampire quite a bit but Queen of the Damned was shit. They really should try to go earthy & authentic, over-stylisation in these films renders the grace inherent in the vampires themselves completely moot.

Tom BITD Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I am not a fan of Anne Rice. I actually feel that Rice (not necessarily her fault, incidentally) began the general decimation of vampirism, turning what was a horrific metaphor for disease and/or the fear of sexuality into a parade of boyfriends with funky dentition.
