The vampire Lestat. Timeless. Ageless. World without end. Infinite life. Death without mortality.
Lestat flows through the years on a river of blood, which sustains his existence. When he so desires, he awards his victims with immortality -- whether they want it or not. Into Lestat's world, in the late 18th century, comes one mortal man, devastated by the loss of his beloved wife and infant daughter ... one Louis de Pointe du Lac. Amid the torpid heat of a delta settlement near New Orleans, the air thick with portent and promises of unearthly desire and unspeakable horrors, Louis encounters Lestat.
Two hundred years later, in late 20th-century San Francisco, Louis decides to tell his story -- a vampire's story of desire, love, yearning, grief, terror, ecstasy -- to a young reporter, weaving the history that has come to be known as "Interview With The Vampire."
"Interview With The Vampire" is the highly anticipated film version of the first volume of ANNE RICE's celebrated "Vampire Chronicles", starring TOM CRUISE as Lestat, BRAD PITT as Louis, STEPHEN REA as Santiago, ANTONIO BANDERAS as Armand and CHRISTIAN SLATER as The Interviewer. KIRSTEN DUNST plays Claudia and DOMIZIANA GIORDANO portrays Madeleine.
Filmed on location in New Orleans, San Francisco, Paris and England's Pinewood Studios, the film is directed by NEIL JORDAN and produced by DAVID GEFFEN and STEPHEN WOOLLEY, with REDMOND MORRIS as co-producer. The screenplay is by Anne Rice. "Interview With The Vampire" is a Geffen Pictures release distributed worldwide by Warner Bros.
Among the acclaimed behind-the-camera talent are director of photography PHILIPPE ROUSSELOT, A.F.C., who received an Oscar for Best Cinematography for "A River Runs Through It" and was Oscar-nominated for his work on "Hope and Glory" and "Dangerous Liaisons"; production designer DANTE FERRETTI, longtime collaborator with Fellini and Pasolini, and an Oscar-nominee for "The Age of Innocence," "Hamlet" and "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen"; costume designer SANDY POWELL, Oscar-nominated for "Orlando" and costumer for "Edward II" and "The Crying Game"; special-effects make-up artist STAN WINSTON, an Oscar-winner for "Jurassic Park," "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" and "Aliens"; key make-up artist MICHELE BURKE, who received Oscars for "Bram Stoker's Dracula" and "Quest for Fire"; and composer ELLIOT GOLDENTHAL (the upcoming "Batman Forever").
