I would like to say that Louis saying "the vagina you passed your firsts 9 months" show that he is gay.... But honestly can't, because the world is to full of straight men who doesn't know the correct words for female anatomy.
I thought I'd share: I found an IWTV fanfiction where the Theatre des Vampire is a porn studio specialized in porn parodies of famous movies, and Daniel Molloy is this elderly professor who leaves long, detailed, bitching negative reviews for every movie, accusing of bad writing.
The descriptions of the parodies are so hilarious I would not even consider them smut. The review are hilarious too.
Daily PSA not to trust AI Overviews. It's neither of those. It's Season 2, Episode 3 at 42:08 on the AMC streaming version if any pro-AI person doesn't believe me. As for the rest of what it said here, it would probably take no more than 2 minutes reading any full season review to see that literally none of that is correct except the episode titles.
Even though I was asking the AI a question about TV and there's literally zero stakes if I accept its wrong answer, there is a serious point here. If it can't get this right and it's using this same "method" when it's asked questions where there are real stakes if the user accepts a wrong answer, that should scare everyone.
I've been researching the rules imposed by SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists), the American actors' union.
Why I think there is a chance we won't see this old Molloy in an explicit relationship with Armand.
There is an EDIT at the end, that give as hope. But anyway the post stand in response to those who claimed, on an old post, that an actor HAS TO DO whatever is in the script once he plays a character.
As I mentioned in another post, and as I've now verified, if a role involves nudity or intimacy, the producer is required to disclose this: in the character breakdown (the description sent to agents) or in the casting announcement; to allows the actor to decide whether or not to audition. Or in any case before the actor accepts the role.
When Eric Bogosian auditioned for the part of Daniel Molloy, his relationship with Armand was definitely not planned in the first season. Because in fact, there isn't one (not even on the second). Assad Zaman said in an interview that when he confronted Eric about the possible future relationship between their characters, Eric was surprised because, not having read the books, he knew nothing about it. This tells us that Eric Bogosian auditioned and signed a contract for a character who had no intimate relationship whatsoever. This is a fact!
Now, Can they change their minds during filming?
They can suggest changes, but they can't impose them (rightly so, since actors are people). If the request differs from what was agreed upon on the contract, the actor's refusal does not constitute a breach of contract. SAG-AFTRA rules protect the actor's right not to be forced to accept changes to scenes involving intimacy or nudity.
So, the production gave the face of Eric Bogosian to Daniel Molloy when he wasn't supposed to be in a relationship. Now that the saga is moving forward, it means new seasons and new contracts: they can propose intimate scenes to the actor, but he isn't forced to accept them, and if that were to happen, the production could
- Shoot the entire thing without any intimate scenes. Telling but not showing.
- Not finalize the new contract and change the actor.
What I think could happen (obviously, this is just an hypothesis) is that the production finds itself in precisely that situation and, therefore, to avoid changing a character's face for no reason, is looking for workarounds. I know Assad and Eric have repeatedly demonstrated their dedication to the DM ship, but it's still possible that a 70-year-old man doesn't feel comfortable being intimate (even just making out) with a man so much younger then him.
Maybe that's not the case, and next season (if there is one) we'll see Armand and Bogosian's Daniel confirm the intimate nature of their relationship! But I think my hypothesis has merit and should be taken into consideration when understanding potential production and script choices.
EDIT: apparently Eric himself told he would be on board and finally some soul was kind enough to share a link.
Instead of just bitching
So, potential production and script choices, could not be based on Eric.
Eric Bogosian and Assad Zaman discuss the potential of physically intimate scenes between Armand and Daniel in The Vampire Lestat's future.
I also searched this Intimacy Coordinator figure, but this post is long enough as it is.
Armand has been showing off his "rest" skill so much this season lol, girl it's ok we get it, it didn't work that one time in San Francisco but you're still a big scary vampire
