There's rumors floating around saying Jared Leto has been cast as Lestat in the Interview with a Vampire "Reboot"? I hate that Hollywood has run out of ideas and has resorted to rebooting everything, that being said I don't hate the casting choice if there is going to be a reboot.

I would have muched preferred Jared Leto and River Phoenix as the two leads in the original film rather than Cruise and Pitt whom I didn't like at all.

If a reboot is in the works then Jared Leto would make a good Lestat. Maybe they should just make a Lestat movie, he has his own book.

I don't mind remakesbut when they are of films that came out 20 years ago and star actors who are still relevant, active, and popular today? Ehh, I don't see the point. Why not wait another 10 years, or just make a movie about Lestat like someone else mentioned.

From what I've read that's exactly what they're going to do. The film will be based around The Vampire Lestat with elements from Interview and QOTD. I hope they're not going to leave out Nicolas though.
