Anne Rice will bring her Vampire Chronicles book series to TV now that she has
the rights to the books again. Universal and Imagine Entertainment bought the
film rights to the book series in 2014 but didn’t do anything with them so she
and her son Christopher Rice were actively shopping the novels for TV.
“The Vampire Chronicles” was picked up by Paramount TV for development an both
Anne and her son will write the series as well as serve as producers.
Reportedly Anne is “thrilled beyond words” about the reboot, stating: “In this
unique golden age of television, I couldn’t ask for a finer or more passionate
team to help bring my beloved vampire hero, Lestat, alive in a series of the
highest quality. This is a dream come true, both for me and for Christopher, and
for the fans who have been asking to see the Brat Prince in this medium for
years.” |
