Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt's movie costumes from Interview with the Vampire on display...

In Director Neil Jordan's 1994 horror film, Interview with the Vampire, Anne Rice writes the screenplay based on her 1876 novel of the same name. The vampiric story is recounted when in 1991 a San Francisco journalist named 'Daniel Molloy' (Christian Slater) interviews Brad Pitt's 'Louis de Pointe du Lac' who claims he is a vampire. Formerly a wealthy 18th-century plantation owner, following the death of his pregnant wife Louis becomes a drunkard and is turned into a vampire by the French vampire 'Lestat de Lioncourt' in 1791 New Orleans. Louis soon regrets being turned into a blood-sucking vampire, whilst Lestat revels in the killing. The film chronicles their time together including the turning of a young child named 'Claudia' (Kirsten Dunst).

This duo of iconic screen-worn costumes were captured on display at The Horror Show exhibition at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles on October 4, 2026.

Sandy Powell is Costume Designer on the gothic horror that required a wardrobe that spanned the 18th and 19th centuries. Louis was styled in warm neutrals, floral vests and tailored tailcoats, whilst Lestat embraced elaborate Victorian suits befitting his aristocratic 18-century roots.
