The Vampire Lestat is the third season of AMC’s Interview with the Vampire, but instead of continuing to focus mainly on Louis, it shifts attention to Lestat de Lioncourt. The story in this show kicks off with journalist Daniel Molloy publishing a hugely successful book based on Louis’s version of past events.
While most of the work shows Lestat in an incomplete and negative way, Lestat remains determined to tell his side of the story. Instead of focusing on defending himself directly, he chooses a dramatic way.
Since the story is so interesting, many fans must be wondering where to watch the sequel. And if you're thinking the same, we've got you covered! The Vampire Lestat is available to stream on AMC+, as it will follow a weekly release schedule.
The same episodes will come out on AMC in the evening, and those with an AMC+ subscription can also follow Lestat's story. Those outside the United States can check the availability of adding the AMC+ channel in their streaming apps and enjoy the show.
