If you’ve felt like Hollywood theatrical comedies have been going the way of the dinosaur, you may not be alone. In which case, the reboot of The Naked Gun (from Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping’s Akiva Schaffer) will feel like an answer to your most desperate prayers in the form of several dozen pie gags to the face — metaphorically speaking. The actual gags in Schaffer’s Liam Neeson vehicle are, simultaneously, a whole lot dumber and a whole lot smarter than that, and they’re fired off with such machine-gun pacing that you might miss a couple while laughing, or simply blinking. It’s the funniest goddamn thing in years.

The cast and crew of Interview With the Vampire had plenty to offer fans of Season 3 — now officially titled The Vampire Lestat — at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. With the spotlight now firmly on Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid), the specter who’s haunted the narrative since 2022, AMC’s acclaimed supernatural drama is spinning off into unfamiliar territory.

A lot happened at the end of Season 2, with Lestat reuniting with his former companion Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), just as journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian) published a scathing tell-all detailing their love affair and the history of the undead. As revealed in AMC’s latest teaser for The Vampire Lestat, screened for fans at Comic-Con, Daniel’s work has blown a hole in any reconciliation between Lestat and Louis. While Lestat essentially becomes a rock star to set the record straight, Louis will be finalizing their divorce once and for all.

“Louis is a petty man,” Anderson tells Inverse with a laugh. The actor has only just joined production in Toronto, but he’s eager to explore Louis’ evolution, and the breakdown of his relationship with Lestat. “I’m not gonna say anything more than that,” he adds, “[but] I think there will be more that I’ll discover.”
