AMC has released a full trailer for its series adaptation of Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches. It was also announced that the series will debut on January 5th, 2023, on AMC+.
Mayfair Witches stars Alexandra Daddario (Percy Jackson, The White Lotus) as Dr. Rowan Fielding, “an intuitive young neurosurgeon who discovers that she is the unlikely heir to a family of witches. As she grapples with her newfound powers, she must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations.”
The series is said to be an “exploration of female power and the mortal implications of our decisions.” It’s the second show being released in what AMC is calling the “Immortal Universe,” which also includes Interview With the Vampire. I’m actually more excited about Mayfair Witches than I am about Interview with a Vampire. It looks like a great supernatural series!
Mayfair Witches also stars Harry Hamlin (Mad Men) as Cortland Mayfair, current reigning patriarch of the Mayfair clan with a voracious appetite for more money, more power and more life; and Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire) as Lasher, a powerful, shape-shifting entity who has been bound to the Mayfair witches for hundreds of years. They are joined by Annabeth Gish (Midnight Mass) as Diedre, Beth Grant (Dollface) as Carlotta, Erica Gimpel (God Friended Me) as Ellie, Jen Richards (Clarice) as Jojo, and Tongayi Chirisa (iZombie) as Citroen.
Mark Johnson (Interview With the Vampire, AMC's Halt and Catch Fire and Better Call Saul) serves as executive producer; Esta Spalding (Masters of Sex) and Michelle Ashford (The Pacific) co-created the series and also serve as writers/executive producers.
