“Burn the Ground”—AMC Announces Trailer Release Date
The fans begged, pleaded, and cried for the trailer and the persistence pays off
The official social media pages for The Vampire Lestat announced an official trailer release for Wednesday, April 22.
Another day, another teaser, another moment for the entire fandom to abandon their day jobs to grovel at the feet of one Lestat de Lioncourt.
Over the past few days, mini clips have been released sporadically on linear television and the AMC+ app. Fans have screen grabbed and brightened the tiniest of imagery into oblivion just to feel his god-like presence.
But the wait is over.
Today, the teaser shows Lestat in what appears to be a studio with a tattered copy of Interview With the Vampire—the very book where he boldly and angrily scribbled “NEVER FXCKING HAPPENED” (train scene, anyone).
Here it all burns to the ground as Lestat lights the novel ablaze, letting his intentions be known that he will destroy every rumor in both the human and the vampire world as he embarks on his own self-destructive journey to “vampire enlightenment.”
This journey will consist of pains we have only ever imagined in our minds—now come to life in Rolin Jones’ and the writing teams’ hands—and uncharted pleasures that take shape in the form of Lestat’s essence upon the grand stage.
Stay tuned for the trailer to release Wednesday, April 22. In the meantime, check out the new mini clip below.
