I like that it's clear that he is putting on a performance.

He's disgusted that it's fake blood. That it's just red syrup. The goblet, it's style maybe 13th century backwards Dark Ages. Which Lestat isn't from, but 1770s to "La Terreur" Reign of Terror.
i have a feeling that since sam reid wasn’t in much of season 2, as well as how they shot the dubai interview footage at the very end of season 2, that they used that time to shoot a chunk of season 3 alongside their shooting of season 2 so there wouldn’t be a super long wait.

@@George-ww6prI agree. He doesn't work for me, either. Neither does Armand. Banderas was a better Armand. The Claudias were too old. Missed the whole point.

Me too. I was already dead waiting for it to replay so I can watch it another 20xs and then song just kept going and the little clips between had me literally GASPING! 😭👑🖤
I have been thinking about season three since season two ended. Daniel joining Lestat while he tours with his band sounds like a great idea. He could take down the Vampire Lestat as he joins him on tour. It also makes sense considering Eric Bogosian actually did use to go on tour with rock bands and hip hop groups. He would be uniquely qualified to play a writer touring with a band.
There were many "atempts" at a Lestat, but none grasped the Bratty, the Sassy, the Attitude, the Sensibility, the violence, the unpredictability, the complexity and all, welcome Lestat it was about time you showed all your imitations how it's done. from an old book's fan I cannot fanthom a better, more perfect Lestat and never shall be. Only for this trailer alone he needs an Oscar

sam reid IS lestat idc what anyone says...his mannerisms, his expressions, his sass, he portrays lestat so well! im super excited for season 3, cant wait to see daniel and lestat try to out-sass each other 😂
I think Sam's portrayal of Lestat works so well because he's an actual fan of Anne Rice's and respects her works, very similar to how Henry Cavill is the best Geralt because he's a geek for the source material of The Witcher whether it be the games or books.
Thank goodness Reid has the luck of working with showrunners who care about the source material as much as he does. A shame Cavill had no such luck at Netflix… 😒
If they're clever, they'll blur the line between reality and fiction by releasing The Vampire Lestat album and music videos for the singles ahead of season 3. They should probably have Sam give some interviews as Lestat too.

@@annad9534 I sincerely hope you're right, they absolutely deserve it. Such an excellent show with beautiful, *complete* source material. They have so much to work with and they are doing it so right.
There's no way I can be normal about this. I first read the Vampire Lestat as a teenager and have loved this character ever since. I never expected to get such a genuinely good and accurate depiction of Lestat on screen. And now we have it and are about to see it fully unleashed.
Yes to it all! We FINALLY get a win after the heartbreak 💔 that was the previous attempt at an adaptation of the rockstar era of our beloved Brat Prince.
Absolutely right! I've been a huge fan for decades. Read the first five books several times. I can't believe how amazingly perfect Sam Reid is as Lestat. This is a dream come true.
@taintedlife2618 yeah, "glam rock" is more 80s hair band in my head (Kiss, Motley Crue etc). This sounds more "country rock-ish" with a touch of Bowie, which I'm here for (coincidentally similar to Jace Everett, whose song "Bad Things" was the theme song for True Blood, the other fab vamp show😁)
Though saying prior: "I don't remember you" to that hopeful producer. Then noticing things here & there like the goblet & soundman. Lestat knows & remembers. He's just pissed bc he's not with his favorite people, like Louis 😅😅❤❤❤❤
Thank you, AMC, for putting Lestat in Claudia's yellow, and for the Gashed Throat and Concerto blood-red choker, and the Wah Ah Ah from Count Dracula, and the cool VL logo, and Lestat being a total diva, and Daniel sounding like a simp, and Mark Johnson having fun in the cameo, and RIP to whoever's blood Lestat's covered in, and eff no Armand wasn't telling the truth! XD This is gonna be another goated season, I'm so excited!
Sam's dedication and commitment to this character is remarkable, the piano, the Italian, the french, THE SINGING, the whole fisicality he brought to Lestat, I love it!!!
As far as I know, Sam Reid is a musician. He's even had a music band, if I'm not mistaken. So the piano and the singing wouldn't be so hard to him, I guess. But I do admire him for the efforts he's made to learn other languages (haven't heard him speaking Italian though, but I believe you😁)
Yeah...I've been fighting the nostalgia of Tom Cruise's portrayal.....Sam Reid really embodies the character...I still appreciate Cruise's pompous little douche tho lol
I never thought I would see the day when they would find a genuine Lestat. Sam Reid is the embodiment of Lestat. Every single little detail he got right! I am taken back 30 years ago to when I first saw IWTV, and then I devoured the next few books. While watching it, I kept saying over and over in my head - he's not dead, he can't be dead, there's no way. I remember waiting years for another book to come out to see what Lestat was up to. I feel like a teenager again; I am so giddy. This is a LITERAL dream come true. Sam Reid was born to play Lestat. Anne Rice would love him! Lestat fans are going crazy right now!!!
I screamed when I saw this pop up. OMG, this is going to be amazing. I...I don't know what I'm going to do with myself before S3. IWTV is already taking up 20% of my brain at all times. Am I even going to be able to function while Lestat the Rockstar eats the rest of it?
His voice is so smooth and rich I can’t. The slit neck choker, looks like blood on his chest under the shirt from whoever he was “entertaining” before walking in there. The dude holding the clapperboard? thing? has “Armand told the truth” tattooed on his arm. I can’t.
oh my god he's in his rockstar cocaine manic pixie girl phase SLAY

Thank you, AMC, for putting Lestat in Claudia's yellow, and for the Gashed Throat and Concerto blood-red choker, and the Wah Ah Ah from Count Dracula, and the cool VL logo, and Lestat being a total diva, and Daniel sounding like a simp, and Mark Johnson having fun in the cameo, and RIP to whoever's blood Lestat's covered in, and eff no Armand wasn't telling the truth! XD This is gonna be another goated season, I'm so excited!
This!👆
I recall how everyone questioned this man in the role of Lestat, and now look at us. THIS. The Lestat we deserve is THIS one.
"Do I look like I need you?"
GAGGED THE LIVE
Face card never declines & he knows it 🖤 we love our brat prince
Rrriiiggghhhttt 😩😝🤘🏾 like I knew he had to say something c😹nty 😂
I feel like Daniel is fangirling in the background! 😂
@@MarieFloreghenry of course he is
he's just like us 😂
He knows enough about him to be nervous.
I really love how he's ACTUALLY a talented musician like fuck dude your voice
I know Sam had too much fun being rockstar Lestat.
100%. He's been waiting for this for a while!
Absolutely, and I trully love that for him
Sam's dedication and commitment to this character is remarkable, the piano, the Italian, the french, THE SINGING, the whole fisicality he brought to Lestat, I love it!!!
As far as I know, Sam Reid is a musician. He's even had a music band, if I'm not mistaken. So the piano and the singing wouldn't be so hard to him, I guess. But I do admire him for the efforts he's made to learn other languages (haven't heard him speaking Italian though, but I believe you😁)
Lestat is possessing Sam
@@по_зернышку_по_семечку he speaks Italian with that singer from the opera, that one Lestat gets mad about because he's wasn't reaching the notes 🙃
MY JAW HIT THE FLOOR OMG!!! The sassyness, the cvnty outfits, Daniel doing a documentary, the blood, the glitter, and the song!!!!! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Probably the 1000% perfect casting of Lestat.
Yeah...I've been fighting the nostalgia of Tom Cruise's portrayal.....Sam Reid really embodies the character...I still appreciate Cruise's pompous little douche tho lol
THE FACT THAT THEY'VE ALREADY RECORDED ALL OF THIS IS INSAAAANEEEE. AND THE SONG? HOLY SHIT
It's not that great. :( Speaking as one who read the book immediately when it was first published and was listening to all the music back then too.
We are so fortunate to have both main actors singing well omg I cannot
But Jacob has already said that Louis is a terrible singer, so a duet will not be forthcoming.
I never thought I would see the day when they would find a genuine Lestat. Sam Reid is the embodiment of Lestat. Every single little detail he got right! I am taken back 30 years ago to when I first saw IWTV, and then I devoured the next few books. While watching it, I kept saying over and over in my head - he's not dead, he can't be dead, there's no way. I remember waiting years for another book to come out to see what Lestat was up to. I feel like a teenager again; I am so giddy. This is a LITERAL dream come true. Sam Reid was born to play Lestat. Anne Rice would love him! Lestat fans are going crazy right now!!!
“I don’t remember you”
“Who the fuck are you?”
Already having a sassfest
GOD I LOVE VAMPIRES
They even mentioned his lawyer, this is a high-level reference
Yes, loved that
singing in his french accent is so crazy what a legend
Rock Star Lestat Let's Go !!! 😭🙌🔥🔥🩸🦇🧛
OMG, YES!!!! I hadn't even thought about the fact that this part of the story is going to let Sam Reid show off more of his singing! I can't wait!!!!
literally me processing that we’re gonna KEEP hearing him singing 😭 OBSESSED
Can't wait for season 3,4 and 5. This is awesome. I love Sam as Lestat. Perfection. He's a great singer too.
I got goosebumps when he started singing. I'm so ready for rock star Lestat! 😭
"I'm your favorite artist's favorite artist. And I'm going to serve exactly who you are..."
a mandatory rewatch every single week
when he said ooh ooh waah I really felt that 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Lol I did though 😂😭😂
making it a documentary so he can tell his side is so perfect!
You really can't get more Lestat than this! The Brat Prince is crushing this!
“Armand told the truth” tattooed on the crew member’s forearm.
THE IMPLICATIONS. 😁
🤯 I was so glued to his face that I didn’t even see that the first time! Thx!
Wait can you please explain what the tattoo means? What did Armand say ??
@@LikeChattingWithAFriendReviews Did you notice the necklace looks like a cut across his throat?? They cannot tease us this way, and make us wait!!
@@ThatArabGirl10 I did 😩. I was not expecting this teaser so soon! 🤞🏾 We get something new regularly, so we don't go crazy!
@@LikeChattingWithAFriendReviews It only makes me want season 3 to start right away, but I think we have to wait till sometime in 2025.
I screamed when I saw this pop up. OMG, this is going to be amazing. I...I don't know what I'm going to do with myself before S3. IWTV is already taking up 20% of my brain at all times. Am I even going to be able to function while Lestat the Rockstar eats the rest of it?
lost track of how many times ive watched this now. soooooooo obsessed
finally The Vampire Lestat! we are SO BACK
I can't believe we're already seeing rockstar Lestat??!?! and a song too and it's a banger??? This feels like a fever dream😭
This is EXACTLY how I imagined Lestat when I read TVL. He's giving drama, brat, and camp all in one. I'm obsessed.
I am fainting... we're not worthy ❤🤸🏾♀️🤸🏾♀️
Sam Reid is the gift that keeps on giving❤ AMC is so lucky to have him
watching this for the tenth time…it's officially addictive
Literally the best show on tv and I’m not exaggerating
It’s too much omfg…the girl was too stunned to speak omg need this asap Sam Reid was born for this role
the crew guy walking tf back & blonde guy on the seat looking at who tf came in.
Such an intense actor. He has a bright future ahead of him.
His voice is so smooth and rich I can’t. The slit neck choker, looks like blood on his chest under the shirt from whoever he was “entertaining” before walking in there. The dude holding the clapperboard? thing? has “Armand told the truth” tattooed on his arm. I can’t.
0:33 that walk is so BRAT!!!
My gosh!!
The aura he exude just by swinging his hips walking ❤
MOTHER has ARRIVED!!!! 🕴️💅🏻
It's the "do I look like I need you?" for me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
WAIT WHAT THIS QUICKLY YESSSS IM SEATED
Someone knock me out, I want to wake up and watch Season 3😭😭😭
It’s hibernation time!!!
😂
YESSSS!!! Lestat, I am ready!
