Never beating the lestat possesion allegations
Jacob Anderson the n1 Louis x therapy shipper š
Part 2?
What I love most about the finale is how it shows Louis finally on his own and content. Claudia calls him out for it multiple times, āwho are you without meā who is Louis alone, because he never gets a chance to find out between his relationships to his family then lestat then Claudia then armand. Louis is always having to perform a role for those he loves and he has no idea who he is alone. The whole āyes maitreā roleplay with armand divorces him even further from who he is, forcing him back into the role of Louis the pimp.
But instead of going back to lestat Louis decides to be on his own, to fully be himself, and the redecorated apartment full of colour and pictures of Claudia and his brother is a beautiful expression of this.

Lestat's outfits | seasons 1 & 2
Costume Design by Carol Cutshall
Sam Reid as Dale Jennings and Lestat de Lioncourt THE NEWSREADER (2021-- ) INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2022-- )
not one single member of the cast is beating the possessed allegations
Interview with the vampire is sooo funny because jacob anderson is giving the performance of a lifetime as a black man struggling with identity in the early 1900s through the metaphor of vampirism and sam reid spends all of his screentime prancing around like a cartoon pony on amphetamines and theyre both equally captivating to watch
i've been having an anxiety attack for hours, but the second i see sam reid with curly hair, blood tears, and some slutty little outfits, i snapped out of it. this power needs to be studied and i need the album YESTERDAY
HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK WE WOOOOONNNNN!!!!!!
(also Christine mention let's fucking gooooooooo)
quite literally the first thing i thought of when i saw the original
romance is (un)dead
the absolute creature i become when i see this man-
here's the blown up version of a tiny panel from a comic i made last year. no more context shall be given. happy pride month.
just finished season 2 of the newsreader and why is sam reid always playing the evil bisexual
One thing about dale is heās gonna yearn.
Somewhere in the world right now, this minute, is a young man who will one day play my beloved Lestat de Lioncourt in our TV series. I wonder what that young man is doing.
Is he reading a book tonight, or watching a film? Is he out dancing at a club? Is he studying for an exam, or perhaps acting in a stage play in Los Angeles or Chicago? Is he on the set of a film, waiting for his time on camera? Maybe he's driving on a narrow highway alone from London to Manchester; or through the traffic of Berlin or St.Petersburg or Brussels. He may have the car radio on, or be musing in silence. Perhaps he's playing the violin in an orchestra, or tap dancing on a Broadway stage.
Is his hair already long, to his shoulders? Is he a snappy dresser? I wonder if he is in love. Has he read any of the Vampire Chronicles?
I hope his parents are proud of him for his talent. I hope he is happy. What kind of wine does he like?
What did he have for dinner? Wherever he is, I'm thinking of him. I'm wishing him well. I'm wishing good things for him. Stay safe, young man. We're coming for you. We love you. We want you.

I wish she got to see her beloved Lestat come to life so beautifully through Sam Reid. To me, there is no Lestat but him.
āI have thick blond hair, not quite shoulder length, and rather curly, which appears white under fluorescent light. My eyes are gray, but they absorb the colors blue or violet easily from surfaces around them. And I have a fairly short narrow nose, and a mouth that is well shaped but just a little too big for my face. It can look very mean, or extremely generous, my mouth. It always looks sensual. But emotions and attitudes are always reflected in my entire expression. I have a continuously animated face.ā

Funniest thing in the world that the man playing Lestat De Lioncourt is the ādo not perceive meā type of introvert
