What do you think? Are you planning to watch Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches next month on AMC?
I still have concerns about the casting of Alexandra, i mean she’s an ok actress, but i don’t see how something like her becomes Rowan… and secondly, Michael appears to be non existant in this show, and his is central to the story in the book, so why no cast listing for this character, has it been turned into some woman only feminist essay? And, as another commenter says, lets hope its not as bad as Interview with the Vampire. I concur.
Let’s hope it’s not as bad as ‘The interview with the Vampire’
