Please tell me this is not happening or please tell me I am misunderstanding this whole article. They don't really want to remake Interview.

They ruined a potentially very good film. As much as I love QOTD they really messed up.
If you had not seen Interview or even read it or The Vampire Lestat and QOTD then it would be fine.
The main reason why they mixed elements from The Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damned in the QOTD film adaptation appears in the trivia page for QOTD:
Warner Bros. was already into its last year of owning motion picture rights to the first three Vampire Chronicles books which would then have transferred back to author 'Anne Rice', who could then sell the rights to another company of her choosing. Knowing what little time they had left, despite the fact they've had the rights and opportunity to make the latter two movies for over seven years, Warner Bros. hastily hired writers to condense the books "The Vampire Lestat" and "Queen of the Damned" into one movie with the latter being the movie title.

You mean by mashing two books, haven't they already done that
The Queen of the Damned film adaptation mixed elements from that novel and The Vampire Lestat.

Great
Did you know there's actually more original content being created then there ever was?
Soooooooooooooooo Rice is rewriting Interview and Lestat over again since that is the original content they are working with.

It's funny how wrong you actually are. Did you know there's actually more original content being created then there ever was? There is and that is a FACT.

Remaking a "classic" does not hurt the original The only thing it does do is bring attention to it. You people crack me up.
This is why they keep making crap remakes because people just accept them.
Can Hollywood think of nothing new. Hey I have an idea, what about making more of her books into film? Wow, I have an even better idea lets start with The Vampire Lestat.
As much as I love QOTD, they really messed up.

Exactly. If you don't think a remake is a good idea, just stay away from it. Watch the original.
Let's be bad guys.
