Interview With The Vampire: Star Debunks Popular Season 3 Theory

by

After Daniel Molloy experiences a fresh chapter in life due to the second season of “Interview With The Vampire”, Eric Bogosian dispels a widely held belief regarding the direction of his character in season 3. The television series on AMC, based on Anne Rice’s acclaimed vampire novels, will explore the world of vampires further in season 3, adapting the storyline from “The Vampire Lestat”. In the upcoming third season of “Interview With The Vampire”, Bogosian assumes the role of Daniel Molloy, a writer who was drawn back into the supernatural realm following his unsuccessful 1973 interview with Jacob Anderson’s Louis.

In relation to “Interview With The Vampire,” airing only in 2026, actor Bogosian recently shared insights with Nerdist about a fleeting tattoo seen in the Comic Con 2024 trailer that read “Armand told the truth.” Many viewers speculated that Molloy, given his appearance in the teaser, could be the one with the tattoo. However, Bogosian clarified that the arm wasn’t his own, suggesting instead that the detail was subtly added by showrunner Rolin Jones. For more details about Bogosian’s explanation, you can read it below.

That’s not Daniel’s item; instead, it belongs to someone with a clipboard. During filming, we didn’t notice the tattoo because it was hidden. I learned about it later when someone online mentioned it. On that day, I myself didn’t spot it, and I asked other people who were present if they had seen it too, specifically asking if the text said “Armand was right.” However, no one saw it. It could have been our producer, Mark Johnson, or someone else’s arm. But overall, we have Rolin Jones, the mastermind, coordinating all these elements together.

What Bogosian’s Response Means For Interview With The Vampire Season 3

Little Love May Be Shared Between The Pair

For those versed in the folklore of “Interview With The Vampire”, it’s not surprising that some fans have embraced the idea that the tattoo was owned by Daniel. His bond with Armand (Assad Zaman), another key character, has been a favorite among fans, often referred to as “The Devil’s Minion”. Initially depicted as a vampire tormenting his prey, their relationship evolved into strategic business partners and eventually tragic lovers whose lives were tragically separated by their immortal existence. However, the television adaptation presents their relationship in a much more distinct manner.

In the TV adaptation of “Interview with the Vampire,” the sequence of events has deviated from the original novels. While Armand’s interest in Daniel blossomed during their encounter in 1973, the reporter appears to have no recollection of spending time together upon meeting again in the present. Moreover, it seems that Armand turned Daniel into a vampire out of spite for his role in revealing Louis’ truth. Over time, Daniel grew estranged from and resentful towards Armand. Given their current predicament and animosity, it’s doubtful we’ll see Armand sharing space with either Daniel or Lestat anytime soon in the present narrative.

The Pair May Have Their Own Spin-Off In The Works

In Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe, there’s a strong desire among fans for the story of Daniel and Armand, a much-loved couple, to be explored further in “Interview With The Vampire”, particularly since the series has sparked a mystery surrounding certain memories from Daniel’s 1973 past that seem to be hidden. However, according to Bergosian’s statement, it seems that their relationship will be strained when Lestat takes center stage. A brief spin-off titled “Armand’s Night Island” is currently being developed, which could mean fans won’t have to wait long to discover the tale of Armand, the Devil’s Minion.
