Queen of the Damned
About “Queen of the Damned”:
Queen of the Damned is a 2002 horror film directed by Michael Rymer from a screenplay by Scott Abbott and Michael Petroni. It is based on the 1988 novel The Queen of the Damned by Anne Rice, the third novel of the book series The Vampire Chronicles, although the film contains many plot elements from the novel's 1985 predecessor, The Vampire Lestat. A stand-alone sequel to Interview with the Vampire (1994), the film stars Stuart Townsend, Aaliyah, Marguerite Moreau, Vincent Pérez and Lena Olin. Townsend replaced Tom Cruise in the role of Lestat, while Matthew Newton replaced Antonio Banderas as Armand.
