Starting with the second book – The Vampire Lestat – the former antagonist became the protagonist, and most of the books in the series have remained Lestat’s story – with a few exceptions that explore other characters.
Paramount is developing a television series based on The Vampire Chronicles.
According to Deadline, both Paramount Television and Anonymous Content are bringing The Vampire Chronicles to TV.
The first book – Interview with the Vampire – introduced the character of Lestat de Lioncourt as the antagonist to hero Louis de Pointe du Lac.
