Talamasca: The Secret Order, the upcoming AMC series set in the Anne Rice Immortal Universe, is set to premiere in mere days. That hasn’t stopped the team behind the show—as well as the original Interview With the Vampire series and Mayfair Witches—from thinking about additional adaptations of Rice’s work.
“You bet there is a list,” executive producer Mark Johnson told Entertainment Weekly in an article showcasing Talamasca.
Johnson would know: He oversees everything that falls under AMC’s Anne Rice Immortal Universe. “There are so many good ideas,” he added. “She is an extraordinary writer, and that much more extraordinary when you realize when she was writing—it’s really so far ahead of her time.”
Johnson went on to tease that they had “three or four other titles [and] subjects that we’d like to pursue… I go to AMC every three months and say, ‘You ready for another? Ready for another?’ And so we’ll have one soon enough…. I think an Anne Rice aficionado could probably figure out which ones are most likely the next in line—[but] I think I’d better keep the titles to myself right now.”
The possibilities are intriguing. AMC bought the rights to Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles book series and The Lives of the Mayfair Witches novels. Polygon has reported that a series titled Night Island, which is based on the vampire resort in Queen of the Damned, is in the works, as well as an adaptation of the book, Memnoch the Devil. 
Other titles AMC can pluck from include Interview with the Vampire, The Vampire Lestat, The Tale of the Body Thief, The Vampire Armand, Pandora, Vittorio the Vampire, Blood and Gold, Prince Lestat, Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis, and Blood Communion: A Tale of Prince Lestat. We’ve seen Interview with the Vampire on screen already, and season three of the show is getting a new title, The Vampire Lestat, which is based on the second book of the same name. Perhaps a show centered around Armand is on Johnson’s list? I’d watch it if so!
On the Mayfair Witches front, the titles AMC has to work from include The Witching Hour, Lasher, Taltos, and The Vampire Chronicles. They also have rights to the crossover novels: Merrick, Blackwood Farm, and Blood Canticle.
So many choices! We’ll have to speculate for now, however, and check out Talamasca when it premieres on AMC and AMC+ on October 26, 2025, with new episodes releasing subsequent Sundays. [end-mark]
