A new season of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches is in the works at AMC, and the network has added three new cast members to Season 2. Alyssa Jirrels (Fatal Attraction) has joined the story as a series regular, playing Moira Mayfair. Moira is Rowan Fielding’s (Alexandra Daddario) cousin and a mind reader who blames the family and Lasher (Jack Huston) for the death of her sister Tessa (Madison Wolfe). As a recurring guest star, Ted Levine (The Silence of The Lambs) will play as Julien Mayfair, Cortland’s (Harry Hamlin) father, a master manipulator and diabolical presence that haunts the family. Thora Birch (American Beauty, The Walking Dead) guest stars as Gifford Mayfair, a self-deprecating tarot card reader and wannabe-bohemian who lately spends a lot of time at her lake house.
Season 2 of Mayfair Witches is currently in production in New Orleans and will debut later in 2024.
Also in the Anne Rice universe is a series in development that, if greenlit, will be “set in the world of the Talamasca, a secretive organization featured in a number of Rice’s iconic novels that is devoted to studying the supernatural world and keeping mortals safe from its darkest elements.” John Lee Hancock serves as writer and executive producer.
Interview With the Vampire will debut its second season on May 12. David Costabile (Breaking Bad, Billions, Suits) will guest star as Leonard, a seasoned TV personality who has a run-in with Molloy (Eric Bogosian). Recurring guest stars this season will also include Roxane Duran (The White Ribbon, Riviera) as Madeleine, and Bally Gill (Sherwood, Slow Horses) as Real Rashid.
