So fans of Anne Rice have probably heard of the new series being made on Interview with a Vampire. I did not have high hopes for this from the start for many reasons. I'd seen so many adaptations and remakes absolutely screwed that at this point it never excites me to hear one is being made. The more I heard about the changes that were being made the more disappointed I was.
I saw nothing wrong with changing Louis's race as it seemed to fit the time period and story. Then I heard about the changes made to Claudia's character and I was pissed. The whole point of Claudia is that she is forever trapped in a child's body while her mind ages. Changing her age to late teens completely erases everything about the character and that entire storyline. It's a pointless change and it takes away the originality of the story.
This last change just made me sad. It recently came out that this series confirms Louis and Lestat's relationship and will heavily rely on sex between them. Now I was actually very happy to hear about the relationship confirmation (I've always shipped them so this was awesome news) but what disappoints me is the sex part. In Anne Rice's series the vampires cannot have sex. Now maybe they changed this because they thought it would draw more people in or maybe it was for representation. Either way it upsets me because this was the perfect opportunity for some asexual representation. It was right there! They wouldn't have had to change anything! To have an asexual relationship represented in something so well known would have been huge! Instead they actively chose to change that part of the lore and its sad. Asexuality is already barely represented and when it is its often poorly represented so to see this choice made when we were so close to something awesome is just...disheartening.
