Interview with the Vampire has dropped a trailer teasing the new Claudia in the second season of the tasty AMC show.
Landing on screens in 2024, Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire has welcomed actress Delainey Hayles, who will step in to replace Bailey Bass as Claudia in the horror TV series.
Bass appeared in five episodes in season 1 as the youthful vampire Claudia, played by a then-child actor Kirsten Dunst in the movie, and she has recently appeared as Tsireya in Avatar: The Way of Water.
Hayles is relatively new to the scene, with guest appearances in Holby City, as Billie Faber, and ITV's Too Close.

The trailer was released on AMC+'s official channels with the title, "Welcome to the Théâtre des Vampires", and runs one minute and 29 seconds in length.
Instantly, fans see clips of Claudia as a voiceover recounts a throwback scene.
"Claudia was a hunger," it says as the new Claudia draws her fangs.
As scenes unfold, a stage show about vampires is performed live, but little does the audience know that what they see on stage is really happening.
The actors gather backstage with someone stating, "Louis and Claudia, welcome to our coven."
Short bursts reveal that the next instalment will be action-packed with tension, motorcycles, explosions and more.

It was announced in April that Bass would not be returning to the TV series. She released a statement that said: "Due to a variety of unforeseen circumstances, I'm unable to return to Anne Rice's Interview With the Vampire for the second season.
"Playing Claudia has been a dream role and an incredible ride. I wish Delainey the best of luck in taking over. I cannot wait to watch."
AMC also released a statement at the time: "Bailey Bass is a talented actor who did a remarkable job bringing the character of Claudia to life.
"For a variety of reasons, Hayles will appear as Claudia in season two. We are grateful for Bailey's unforgettable performance in season one and wish her nothing but the best."
Interview with the Vampire airs on AMC and AMC+ in the US. A UK broadcaster and release date has not been announced yet.
