I have not seen much talk of this shot from the trailer yet...
That is Louis, in his dark room in (likely) the 40s, developing photos - and burning this one.
It does seem as if he is doing it with the fire gift (or if someone else there does it with the fire gift?!), and it does seem to be a very targeted little flame.
Meaning especially this photo is supposed to burn.
Now, obviously the camera(s) Louis has will play a big part of it all. Together with the diaries the photos are tangible proof of what he saw - and how Claudia looked, for example.
Of what was reality, and what was hallucination.
Of what he wants to remember - and what he will choose to forget.
Or what he should forget, by someone else's decree.
It will be immensely interesting to see which photos will survive, especially since this:
might be the same room. Which means Louis might spend a lot of time there, even sleep?!
Many have theorized that Louis is still seeing Lestat there, in that room, too, because of this:
But I personally think that is Louis' hand.
If he has a special room to himself to develop photos in that speaks for an extended time in Paris (before the shit hits the proverbial fan).
If he and Armand have a relationship for longer it stands to reason that Armand might have come into that room at different points, too.
We do know Armand has the fire gift, so I could easily see him burn that photo in the first gif.
OR that is actually the moment Louis develops his - and that would be hugely interesting then.
What would make Louis want to incinerate a photo so badly that he would be able to bundle the energy and send it out like that. What would produce enough emotions, "fuel" for him to be able to do that.
What is on that photo... or what isn't, for that matter.

People talk about the sex scenes in the TV show not being like in Anne Rice’s books… don’t they notice that the sex scenes include kissing & nudity: yes, and of course in most respects they have the look of any (wildly Romantic, intense, passionate & oftentimes violent) sex scene….
BUT if we witness a climactic moment, they also all culminate in the enhange of blood. Here, Louis bites into Lestat, just as the camera pans away. (Watch it & listen to the sound effects.) As Antoinette looks on. Well… wouldn’t you?! 😉😂😅😇 And obviously that’s what happens in the first sex scene too (but the other way round.) I’m just saying…

Sometimes I see Interview with the Vampire fanart and I ask "who is this white man with Lestat?" choosing to forget any cannon without Jacob Anderson as Louis.
I genuinely forget that Louis was originally white 💀💀💀

Interview with the vampire (2022) is basically like:
Louis: I hate who I’ve become, and am in agony all the time.
Lestat: but have you considered you’re the hottest piece of ass to exist ever.

hey!! so, i think it’s safe to say that the scene in the louvre between louis and armand is now joined by hallucination lestat? if that’s so, why is louis still hallucinating him when he’s just seen that lestat is alive and what could even make them stop?
also, if the hallucinations are still happening after the trial, why isn’t louis still getting the hallucinations now in dubai? i’m sorry if you’ve answered a question about this already
Hey!
So I chewed on this a bit, because... while Louis will certainly start out with hallucinating Lestat... this shifts a bit later.
At the TCA panel it was said that Lestat was "potentially more Louis than himself" this season.
That is an interesting comment.
Obviously Lestat cannot be there in the Louvre, Louis thinks him dead, so what this actually says is that Lestat there is a manifestation of Louis somehow.
If the Louvre is after the theater, then he is channeling Lestat, imho. Because Louis knows. He knows Armand could have prevented it. It's one of the hard to grasp aspects of it all, just reblogged an ask of V re that.
He adopts some of the strength of the Lestat in his memory, in a way, to deal. He conjures the vision of how Lestat would react, what he might say.
I BET we will have Lestat commenting on Armand - a lot. I just bet.
But there, in the Louvre... I bet that's almost a defense mechanism.
