SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 14, 2000 -- Newly earned fame and power can really wear one down.So says Wes Bentley.The "American Beauty" scene-stealer has decided to drop out of Warner Bros.’ "Queen of the Damned," citing the need of personal downtime as the primary reason.Based on the novel by gothic maven Anne Rice, "Damned" is the third installment of the author’s "Vampire Chronicles." (The first installment, "Interview With the Vampire," was made into a hit 1994 movie starring Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Antonio Banderas and a very pre-"Dick" Kirsten Dunst). The "Damned" story follows vampire Lestat as he metamorphoses into a rock star whose tunes awaken the hibernating queen of all vampires. No actor has yet been named to replace Bentley. But if it’s any consolation, singer/part-time actress Aaliyah has signed on to star in the project as the queen.
