Eric Bogosian (Talk Radio) has been cast in the upcoming AMC series Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire in the role of Daniel Molloy, an investigative journalist nearing the end of his career who’s given a second chance at the interview of a lifetime. Based on Anne Rice’s iconic and bestselling novel, the series follows Louis de Pointe, Lestat De Lioncourt and Claudia’s epic story of love, blood and the perils of immortality.
Executive produced by award-winning producer Mark Johnson (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Halt and Catch Fire, Rectify), creator and showrunner Rolin Jones (Perry Mason, Friday Night Lights), along with Christopher Rice and the late Anne Rice, the series’ first season consists of seven episodes premiering later this year on AMC and AMC+. Acclaimed director Alan Taylor directs the first two episodes and executive produces.
“In 1988, I hit my mom up for money three times to see Talk Radio in the movie theaters. I count Eric Bogosian as one of the half dozen artists who made me want to do this for a career. He is, for me, the dented car fender of the American Soul and I can think of no better actor/writer alive to play this role. I’m in total frothing geek mode about his casting,” said Jones.
Bogosian joins previously announced cast Sam Reid (Lestat), Jacob Anderson (Louis), Bailey Bass (Claudia) and Assad Zaman (Rashid).
