Anne Rice's Talamasca: The Secret Order (AMC) -- EP: John Lee Hancock -- Premieres 10/26/25
Nicholas Denton (Dangerous Liaisons, Glitch) has been cast as the lead of the third series in its expanding Anne Rice Immortal Universe, a drama focused on a secretive society called The Talamasca. Anne Rice's The Talamasca (wt) is slated for a 2025 premiere on AMC and AMC+ with production beginning next month in Manchester, England. The six-episode season will focus on the men and women responsible for tracking and containing the witches, vampires, and other creatures scattered around the globe. Denton will star as Guy Anatole. He is brilliant, handsome and sharp on the surface, but he's always known his mind works a little differently. On the cusp of graduating law school, he is approached by a representative of the Talamasca, a secretive agency that monitors and protects us from the supernatural world. When Guy learns that the Talamasca has been tracking him since his childhood, he falls headlong into a world of secret agents and immortal beings who, up to now, have maintained a fragile balance with the mortal world. But for that balance to hold, and for Guy to survive, he will have to learn to embrace the dark, treacherous depths of his true and singular self.
Comic Con just dropped the trailer.
Will be a 6 episode season.

I'm not sure if I'll bother. Interview with the Vampire was a huge misfire, and Mayfair Witches was flat-out unwatchable.
It's really sad that AMC acquired Anne Rice's properties like this and turned what could have been an interesting shared universe into a fucking mess. They unnecessarily rewrote one of the greatest vampire novels of all time and turned The Witching Hour into a never-ending Lifetime original movie.
