Queen Of The Damned Cast: What They Look Like Now & Biggest Movies Since
It’s been 20 years since Queen Of The Damned was released, so what does the cast of the vampire horror movie look like now, and which notable movies have they starred in since? When Queen Of The Damned was released in 2002, neither critics nor Anne Rice – whose Vampire Chronicles series the film was loosely based on – were too impressed by it. However, critical consensus isn’t always gospel and Queen Of The Damned proved a moderate success alongside becoming something of a cult film in the years since its release.

He's also pursued by both a paranormal researcher and an ancient vampire queen who is awoken from a centuries-long slumber by his music.
