In addition to “Interview With the Vampire,” AMC will also soon be serving up a small screen take on Anne Rice‘s “Mayfair Witches,” and more casting has been announced today.
Deadline reports that Annabeth Gish (The Fall of the House of Usher; Midnight Mass) has joined the cast as Diedre, alongside the previously announced Alexandra Daddario.
Tongayi Chirisa (Palm Springs, Antebellum), Beth Grant (Rain Man, No Country for Old Men), Erica Gimpel (God Friended Me), and Jen Richards (Her Story) have also signed on.
Esta Spalding (“Masters of Sex,” “On Becoming a God in Central Florida”) and Michelle Ashford (“Masters of Sex,” “The Pacific,” “John Adams”) are both executive producers and writers of the series. Spalding, who has an overall deal with AMC Studios, will serve as showrunner.
