The Vampire Lestat season 4: What does Sam Reid know?

We are very-much aware that at the time of this writing, there is no official renewal for The Vampire Lestat season 4 over at AMC. Could it still happen? Absolutely, and we actually think it is close to a sure thing.

Because these are episodes that are trying to adapt some precious material from Anne Rice, of course it makes sense for actors to be clued in on some major plot points — even on a show like this that does change a few things for the sake of its own continuity. So how much does Sam Reid actually know about what the future holds? As it turns out, quite a bit … but he also knows how to keep a secret.

In speaking on a little of this further, the actor notes to Collider that there have been a lot of conversations about the story to come:

If we’re lucky enough to get one, if we did go on, yeah. We talk about this stuff all the time because I can imagine it’s frustrating for an audience wanting everything as soon as it’s there, and wanting everything all the time. But we are adapting a huge breadth of material, and the way that they adapt these books, it’s very detailed, and they put a lot of thought into it.

Yes, I need to know what is going on. Where is he when he’s making those recordings? What has happened? Where is he in the story? Where does that lead to? These are the things that I need to know, so we do talk about them at length. Why are we seeing certain things from his past in certain ways? Why have they been represented in such a fashion? What is he fundamentally trying to unpick when he looks back in a certain way to what it relates to where he is right now? Why is he examining his failures? Why is he examining why he is not successful as a vampire or as a human? Why are we looking at that in that lens? Where are we? It’s very important to me to understand, so yeah, I know a lot, but I can’t tell you beyond those things.

Ultimately, we just hope that a season 4 is announced over the next few weeks so that everything is a little bit clearer insofar as the future goes. Also, that it reduces somewhat the time between these seasons.
