Trivia:
|
- Christina Ricci auditioned for the role of Claudia.
- The river scenes were done by removing such modern items as the Greater New Orleans Bridge and radio towers and replacing them with 18th century sailing vessels in post-production.
- Johnny Depp was offered the role of Lestat.
- Stephen Rea (Santiago) makes regular appearances in Neil Jordan's films.
- Author Anne Rice wrote the part of Lestat with Rutger Hauer in mind. Upon learning that Tom Cruise had been cast, she was quite disappointed and expressed concern that Cruise could not carry the part. After attending a screening, Rice wrote a letter of apology, quite pleased with Cruise's portrayal.
