New Trailer Shows Alexandra Daddario Coming to Terms with Her Powers

AMC has dropped a new trailer for Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches, the upcoming series starring Alexandra Daddario as the heiress to a line of powerful witches. Daddario portrays Rowan Fielding, a young neurosurgeon who unintentionally uncovers that her birth mother comes from a line of witches. Upon this discovery, Rowan must contend with a sinister presence that has haunted her family for generations. The trailer shows us Daddario’s character coming to terms with, and struggling to control, her recently discovered powers. These hardships seem to lead the young doctor through a path of self-discovery, as we hear her saying she knows exactly who she is during the trailer’s last seconds.

Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches also stars Jack Huston as a shape-shifting creature named Lasher, bound to the Mayfair Witches; Tongayi Chirisa as Ciprien, a supernatural investigator assisting Rowan; and Harry Hamlin as Cortland Mayfair, Rowan’s father. The series is written and executive produced by Esta Spalding and Michelle Ashford. The two previously collaborated on the dark comedy series Becoming a God in Central Florida. Spalding, under an overall contract with AMC Studios, also serves as showrunner.

Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches premieres January 8 on AMC and AMC+, with two episodes. Subsequent episodes will follow weekly. Eight episodes make up the first season.

Based on best-selling author Anne Rice’s trilogy, Lives of the Mayfair Witches, the series is the second project to join the author’s expanding universe on the network. Interview with the Vampire, starring Sam Reid and Jacob Anderson, just wrapped its first season to positive reviews. Ahead of its first season premiere, Interview with the Vampire was renewed for a second season by the network.

In 2020, AMC Networks acquired rights to two of Rice’s best-selling sagas: The Vampire Chronicles and Lives of the Mayfair Witches. All title rights are held by AMC Networks for streaming, television, and partner distribution.

The best-selling author passed away in 2021, before the release of AMC’s Interview With the Vampire, but her son Christopher Rice remains committed to the projects and is set to act as executive producer on anything developed under the AMC deal.

In an interview with Variety in June, following the announcement of Interview with the Vampire, AMC Executive Dan McDermott said that there were other unofficial Rice projects in the works and that it was the network’s hope “to honor everything about the source material and the characters’ backstories.”
