Third Series in Anne Rice Immortal Universe in the Works at AMC

AMC Networks has announced the development of its third supernatural series within the expanding Anne Rice Immortal Universe. The project comes after the successful series debuts of Interview with the Vampire and Mayfair Witches, which have both been renewed for a second season.

“The enthusiastic critical and fan reception to Interview and Mayfair is a great sign of what is yet to come in this immersive universe based on the works of Anne Rice,” AMC boss Dan McDermott said in a statement. “We’re excited to be in active development of the next installment in this growing franchise, written and to be showrun by the incomparable John Lee Hancock. The Talamasca is one of the most intriguing elements of Rice’s works and a connective thread through so many of her stories, the standalone and crossover potential for this third series is immense.”

The untitled drama hails from Oscar nominee John Lee Hancock, who will serve as the writer and showrunner. The series is set in the world of the Talamasca, a secretive organization featured in a number of Rice’s iconic novels that is devoted to studying the supernatural world and keeping mortals safe from its darkest elements.

The project will be overseen by Oscar and Emmy-winning producer Mark Johnson (Breaking Bad), who will also served as an executive producer. AMC Networks acquired the rights to the late author’s collection back in 2020.
