On rumor patrol....Robert Downey Jr as the vampire Lestat?
Bloody Disgusting. says they confirmed that the Iron Man. star is in talks to play the vampire-- a role made famous by Tom Cruise in Neil Jordan’s 1994 film "Interview With The Vampire" and Stuart Townsend in Michael Rymer's 2002 film "Queen Of The Damned".
Warner Bros. owns the two previous films. Universal Pictures wants the reboot
Not yet known what direction this reboot would take either restarting from the beginning or jumping right into another Anne Rice novel from her famous Vampire Chronicles series...
If true and RDJ lands the part--it would be a good fit and certainly put the film series back on track--riding the current vampire wave...
Stay Tuned...
