Yes! It’s really sweet and their work husband energy is, as always, off the charts, haha.

It's really incredible how much chemistry Jacob and Sam have as these characters, and it's so deeply lovely that they both seem like wonderful people and seem genuinely really close and to care a lot about each other (I always think of Jacob reassuring Sam, who was clearly so nervous, at SDCC, and just how much time they clearly enjoy spending together talking and hanging out).
Yes, it’s just precious!!!

We really are quite blessed with them and the whole cast!! 🥰

Like Loumand-hate vexing aside, there actually is something truly insideous about reducing the complete absence of Jacob & Assad interviews and even questions pertaining to eachother this promo cycle to "they don't like Loumand". It not about Loustat vs. Loumand, or which actors are insane about eachother, It's the fact that this season hinges on the rise and fall of the relationship of queer black/brown men and AMC and interviewers alike sidelined that dynamic the entire time. You would not know from press that Assad is co-leading and the only time Jacob and Assad even talk about eachother is in reference to the ep 5 argument being their first scene together. Like, it would be willfully ignorant to ignore how Lestat is as present in this season because producers had no faith in the strength of the rest of the cast, and how Jacob and Assad are only ever paired up with their white co-workers who simply are not as essential to the season as they are to eachother.
In a show about toxic relationships and the way trauma lingers and effects one's ability to interact with another- There is so much to talk about between Louis and Armand. It is not only a diservice to a large chunk of the performances being given, but also to the story itself. I can sit here and wax about how these 77 years together are still worthy of discussion and careful consideration but the truth is- I wouldn't be writing this post if one or both of them were white. If Armand were still that redheaded russian boy we would have a wealth of promo and playing up the romance at the heart of their relationship all the way to the divorce hearings. But because our leading men are Black and South Asian, instead POC are asking you once again to please give a fuck about us even when a white person isn't around for you to latch on to.

“i stand with my toxic wife”, and it’s just grown adult fictional men who i would 100% get a restraining order against just by knowing that they actually existed.

love how loustat are matching with their cunty little poses and armand evidently just did not get the memo.
!!loustat are soulmates in canon proof!!

eric talking about how luke was watching him and planning a strategy on how to play him had me laughing like luke studied him like a bug or something, the way he talks about is just too funny to me but then i will watch scenes like the one when young daniel asks louis to show him his fangs and his reactions, his physicality is exactly like eric's. idk what the fuck luke did but it worked
I looovveee when actors are mimicking each other successfully, it's so fascinating to see!!!! just look at sam doing this with jacob too!! and also ben daniels mimicking jacob in the last episode!! AND idk if it's a hot take or not but of course delainey is doung her own thing with claudia this season BUT when i see her in some scenes she gives off such a strond bailey's claudia vibe and my heart just melts bc i live them both very dearly 💔 luke obviously did an amazing job in this episode and that's why I hope we'll see more of him, he clearly did his homework and knew how to play young!daniel right to both embody eric's daniel and to show us a different younger version of the same character

Armand turning Daniel out of spite offscreen ruined my night it's never been so over for us
ok no anon i know but look at me look at me breathe with me i'm going to say two things about this
1. i don't know how much of season three is written already, but none of it has been filmed so far. there is still time. hell, there will always be time as long as they renew—even if, at the very worst, they don't show much in season three because of the “rockstar lestat, lestat's season” of it all, they could still revisit important building blocks in armand's own season.
2. wait i forgot what i was going to say here—AH yes so of course. of course these are post-season interviews and are meant to give a little clarity as to what happened and why and the motivations behind certain actions, but they can't spoil too much of what's yet to come. i have read countless interviews where writers and/or actors said x and then it turned out to be y, simply because they need to elaborate on what's already happened without spoiling too much of their future plans. actors are a little shit at it, they always say too much and generate expectation. writers are better, they basically tell fuck all. they circle around things and sometimes outright lie to a) avoid expectations they're not sure it'll be possible to satisfy, at least within a certain time-frame and b) keep their plans as close to their chest as possible, simply because that's the point, that's they're job, they have to make something for you to witness so it doesn't serve them to just explain it beforehand.
i'm ngl i got nervous too there but let us all hold hands in silent prayer it isn't over until it's over okay godspeed

I swear whoever first said "summer of rpf" was hit in the face by Appolo with the gift of prophecy.
It feels like all the actors/celebs used to go "ew, no, separate us from our roles" or "haha how silly" about any instance of rpf. But this year they all collectively went "actually, we're all hot and beautiful and there's really no reason for us to be normal about each other. Yes, we do want to talk about it. Where's the megaphone?"
no literally. there's no better way to have fun in the sun than to pretend/play up your romantic and sexual relationships with your coworkers. or, if you're me, be inside on computer watching actors be deranged about each other

I wonder if Rolin has had his Gabrielle actor in mind since he started writing the show
I'm curious about that too, anon, and it wouldn't surprise me if he did.
There's a saying that I've heard a lot in casting conversations for theatre and film, at least in Australia, which is 'young blood in old hands'. It basically means that creative magic can happen when you partner younger, less experienced actors with older, very experienced actors. The idea behind it is that young / new actors learn from veteran performers, and the veterans get challenged and taken to unpredictable places / get put on their toes by less polished performers, which in turn creates great work.
Given the roles they've done open casting for have predominantly been leads (Jacob, Sam, Delainey and Assad [the latter two who are very green really]) versus the roles that have gone out very specifically to major [and will be major] supporting characters (Eric, Ben and Justin), I could see that as being a part of the thought process.
If that is the case - which again, it might not be! - it wouldn't surprise me if he had someone in mind for Gabrielle already at all, particularly given her major scene partners will be Sam, Assad and Joseph Potter, the last of whom is also pretty green as an actor.

Why is it Armand’s responsibility to reconnect his husband with his ex. He has every right to reject relaying Lestat’s “ily”. Louis is honestly really fucked up for stringing him along for decades gestating all this insecurity but he plays victim and everyone forgives him. I was obsessed with him last season but this season’s kinda put a strain on my relationship with him especially when I see everyone letting him get away with his abuses
It's not his responsibility and I do understand why armand didn't do it I'm just saying that omission is really giving away Armand's motivation. Still though why is it Armand's responsibility to reconnect with Lestat at all? Louis did not ask him to do that Louis is actively saying "no no no" he did not want this. Armand is NOT doing it out of responsibility or as a favor like he says in the show, he's doing it to scare Louis back into his arms and because of that he can't relay Lestat's love because he is still scared Louis would choose him.
And as to Louis abusive behavior I don't care about that as much. I get what you're saying but the show isn't really about choosing the better half of each toxic relationship for me. They're all toxic and they're all abusers from one angle or another and actually I like the show better when they're doing it out in the open like that. The Loustat domestic violence scene is my favorite in the whole show

I've had very minor interactions with the AMC's Interview With The Vampire fandom since starting the show last week and so far it seems that the Venn diagram of people simping for Lestat and people simping for Spike from Buffy is a circle. We truly have learnt nothing and I think that's beautiful.

hi! since you're doing the tremendous task of identifying all actors who seem to be part of the show atm, i need to put smth out here because i've also been keeping tabs on who's following who on ig, and i've noticed something interesting that istg might just be me going insane but also... who knows... there's this woman on ig that everyone is following: diatta_emilie and taking into account that a lot of people are fancasting fka twigs as akasha, when i saw her i immediately thought about a possible casting. im going anon on this one because tbh with this particular thing i do feel a little tinfoil hat but i HAD TO tell someone. Have an amazing day!
Ohhh yes you are right Anon! I noticed that too, but didn't pay full attention and ended up leaving it out. I did a little research and she is an actress too! When I saw her I was paralyzed because she is soooo beautiful! I'll add it in the next update, but for now:
"Born and raised in France, Emilie Diatta moved to Czech Republic when she was 13." (source)

Bring on more discoveries, I love this investigation and it helps us kill time until season2!

What do you think about assad and delainey's performance so far i saw some people complain about her accent work i can't tell but it sounds natural to me
I'm not from New Orleans or American so I can't say if it's truly accurate or not! Either way, I really really like her voice. It's nice to listen to, especially when it gets all "raspy" like in the scene where she's asking him about his camera.
Sidenote: I heard other fans complain about Bailey Bass's accent too when Season 1 was airing, so I don't know if a lot of these complaints are because neither of them have an accurate accent, or because "fans" are just looking for another way to complain about the casting choice for Claudia.
Assad is amazing ofc. I expected as much but he's really standing out this season for someone who's not as well known as Jacob or Sam or Eric, and initially thought he'd only being playing a servant on the show.
