Beginning with the 1976 publication of Interview with the Vampire, author Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles franchise has been a favorite of bloodsucker devotees everywhere. Perhaps most well known for introducing the world to centuries-old vampire Lestat de Lioncourt, Rice’s Vampire Chronicles has so far consisted of 11 novels.
自1976年《夜访吸血鬼》的问世,作者Anne Rice的小说《吸血鬼编年史》成为吸血鬼题材爱好者最喜欢的小说。其中最深入人心的可能就是让世人知道吸血鬼莱斯特,Rice的《吸血鬼编年史》目前包含了11部小说。

In 2014, it was announced that Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment had acquired the rights to The Vampire Chronicles, with plans to re-adapt Interview for the screen. Those plans are now apparently null and void, as Anne Rice has announced on her Facebook page that she has reacquired the film rights to the universe she created, and is planning to take The Vampire Chronicles saga to TV. According to Rice, the Vampire Chronicles TV series will – unsurprisingly – center on Lestat, and begin by telling his origin story as written in Rice’s second Chronicles novel The Vampire Lestat.
早在2014年,Universal Pictures 还有Imagine Entertainment已经获得《吸血鬼编年史》的拍摄权,计划将其搬上大荧幕。但是这项计划失效了,因为Anne Rice已经在FB上宣布取消将其拍成电影的决定,而是将《吸血鬼编年史》拍成电视剧。毫无疑问,《吸血鬼编年史》主角是Lestat,本剧将以Rice的第二部小说《吸血鬼莱斯特》为原型讲述Lestat的故事作为开端。
