The third season of AMC+’s Mayfair Witches series will premiere this December with a new, or at least expanded, title.

Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches: Salem Coven – the last two words are the new part – will premiere on Wednesday, December 30.

The title and season launch date were unveiled by AMC Global Media at New York Comic Con, where a Main Stage panel Friday included Mayfair stars Alexandra Daddario, Harry Hamlin, Tongayi Chirisa, Betsy Brandt and Eliza Scanlen, as well as Co-Showrunners and Executive Producers Esta Spalding and Tom Schnauz, and Executive Producer Mark Johnson.

Also released was a trailer (watch it above) and some first look images (see them above and below).

Based on the Anne Rice book trilogy Lives of the Mayfair Witches, the AMC+ series was created by Spalding and Michelle Ashford and features Daddario as neurosurgeon Dr. Rowan Fielding who learns she is the heiress to a dynasty of powerful witches haunted by a sinister spirit. Hamlin plays the family patriarch Cortland Mayfair.

In the new clip, Daddario’s Rowan laments, “My whole life has been nothing but pain and death for everyone I love, just to play my part in an ancient prophecy.” But she cautions: “Nothing is set in stone.” Check it out above, and the images below:

Thirty years ago, Baz Luhrmann gave Shakespeare guns, Hawaiian shirts and a killer soundtrack — and turned Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes into movie stars. Coming off his 1992 debut, Strictly Ballroom, Luhrmann delivered a modern Romeo + Juliet, with the Bard’s dialogue transplanted to present-day Verona Beach, where the Montagues and Capulets were rival, gun-toting dynasties.

Luhrmann spotted a magazine photo of 19-year-old DiCaprio, then an Oscar nominee for What’s Eating Gilbert Grape, and saw his Romeo. DiCaprio and his father paid their own way to Australia, where the actor spent two weeks workshopping with Luhrmann. Juliet was trickier. Natalie Portman was initially cast but at 13 looked uncomfortably young opposite DiCaprio. “[The studio] Fox said it looked like Leonardo DiCaprio was molesting me when we kissed,” Portman later recalled. Luhrmann eventually found his Juliet in 17-year-old My So-Called Life star Claire Danes. The cast included Brian Dennehy and Paul Sorvino as the feuding fathers and John Leguizamo as Tybalt — a role Christian Bale also auditioned for — before heading to Mexico for a production almost as chaotic as the play. Hurricanes destroyed sets. Illness shut down filming for a week. Hairstylist Aldo Signoretti was kidnapped and released for a $300 ransom. Somehow, they finished the picture.

Fox opened William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet on Nov. 1, 1996. THR called it “clever and well-executed,” audiences turned the $15 million experiment into a $147 million worldwide hit and the film earned an Oscar nom for art direction. It also helped launch DiCaprio toward Titanic and saw Danes cast in multiple films. Looking back 25 years later, even Luhrmann seemed surprised. “The fact that [the film] even got made is kind of bonkers,” he said.
