Anne Rice developing The Vampire Chronicles TV show

Author Anne Rice is developing a TV project based on her popular book series The Vampire Chronicles.
The writer of the novels Interview with the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat is teaming up with her son Christopher for the series.
He is working on “a detailed outline for an open ended series, faithfully presenting (vampire) Lestat’s story as it is told in the books”.
Rice’s works have spawned movies including Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles and Queen of the Damned, and she wants her TV adaptation to reflect the success of the films.
