AMC's TV interpretation of Interview with the Vampire is back for a second season. Following a lengthy delay and a major cast shake-up, the timeless vampire classic is finally back. Keep reading to learn where to watch Interview with the Vampire, whether you have cable or are looking for a cheap cord-cutting alternative. Better yet, we've found a way to watch it for free, too.
Based on The Vampire Chronicles novels from Anne Rice, Interview with the Vampire tells the story of Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), a vampire recounting his life to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian). Chief among his many tales is his entanglement with the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid), as well as the young vampire Claudia. In the first season, Claudia was portrayed by Bailey Bass, but she'll be replaced by Delainey Hayles in Season 2. The story was previously adapted into a film version starring Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.
If you've been hoping for a second season since the show first premiered in 2022, the wait is finally over. Below, we'll break down all of your Interview with the Vampire Season 2 watch options.
Interview with the Vampire airs at 9 p.m. ET on Sundays on AMC in the US. The new season premieres May 12, and episodes are released weekly. For those without cable, you can catch Interview with the Vampire (and other AMC shows) through a couple of cord-cutting avenues like Philo and Sling TV.
Philo costs $25 a month and comes with a one-week free trial. In addition to AMC, the live TV streaming service has channels like BBC America, HGTV, and Lifetime. Sling TV is another popular cable alternative that carries AMC. Sling subscriptions start at $40 a month, but the service often comes with first-month discounts for users.
Season 1 of Interview with the Vampire is available to stream for free through BBC iPlayer in the UK. There's no word yet on when Season 2 will be available in the UK, but we'll keep this space updated if there's any news.
As with AMC's recent Walking Dead spinoff, TVNZ will be showing each new episode weekly on Monday evenings in New Zealand. All of season 1 is there already if you'd like to catch up on what happened back in 2022.
If you'll be traveling outside US when a new episode airs and you want to keep up with your US subscriptions, it might be time to try out a VPN. This can also be used to watch Interview with a Vampire for free via TVNZ in New Zealand. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are tools that allow you to change your virtual location so that your device can access websites that might vary from region to region.
Our go-to VPN pick is ExpressVPN, a tried-and-true option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Check out our ExpressVPN review for additional details and keep reading to learn how to use a VPN.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
