NEW YORK, NY – June 5, 2026 – Independent Film Company and Shudder announced today that they have acquired Alex Goyette’s debut feature BREEDER starring Daniel Doheny, Dot Marie Jones, Maddie Phillips, and Tanaya Beatty. Rights include The United States, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. The film will world premiere at the Tribeca Festival on Saturday, June 6, and will have a theatrical release this Fall.
BREEDER follows an eccentric poodle breeder who lures a broke college student to her remote ranch with a promise of research funding. But, as he soon learns, there’s a catch.
“Independent Film Company and Shudder have always been a dream home for us. We’re thrilled to partner with them to bring BREEDER to audiences following its world premiere at Tribeca. As conversations around eugenics continue to resurface, our film confronts those ideas through the eyes of a deranged poodle breeder,” said writer-director Alex Goyette.
“BREEDER is the kind of movie that makes you lean forward and ask, ‘How did they get away with this?’” said Mark Ward of IFC Entertainment Group. “It’s provocative and constantly surprises you just when you think you’ve figured it out. We knew the moment we saw it that audiences will be talking about it long after they leave the theater, and we can’t wait to shock audiences on the big screen later this year.”
BREEDER is produced by Ian Start, Byron Ashley, Brian Mitchell, Chris Wilkinson, and K. Asher Levin, and executive produced by Jeremy Ross, Ronnie Exley, Steven Schneider, Ryan Marchant, and Tyson Call. The film was financed by Rabbits Black and Four J Films. The deal was negotiated by Mark Ward for Independent Film Company and Shudder with UTA on behalf of the filmmakers.

Season two, which will again be set in the quaint Maine town of Founder’s Cove, will also consist of six, hour-long episodes and go into production later this year.
“I am crazy happy we get to do a second season of You’re Killing Me,” shared Shields. “I’m thrilled to be collaborating once again with the talented Robin Bernheim and having the opportunity to act opposite Amalia Williamson and Tom Cavanagh has been a dream.

AMC Global Media and Palomo Launch Capsule Collection Inspired by The Vampire Lestat
The Fashion Collection – THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO – is Available Beginning May 26, Just Ahead of the Series’ Highly Anticipated Debut on Sunday, June 7 on AMC and AMC+
View Collection Here
NEW YORK, May 26, 2026 – AMC Global Media and renowned Spanish designer PALOMO today announced the global launch of a special capsule collection inspired by The Vampire Lestat, which debuts Sunday, June 7 on AMC and AMC+. The collection, THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO, consists of 16 unique pieces and reinterprets some of PALOMO’s most recognizable looks, incorporating the themes and aesthetic of the series with a contemporary vision of gothic romanticism, drama and sensuality. THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO capsule collection will be available beginning Tuesday, May 26 on the brand’s official website, https://palomospain.com/
For the collection, which includes jackets, vests, dresses, capes, and more, Alejandro Gómez Palomo revisits some of the brand’s most representative silhouettes, fabrics and decorative elements, rendering them through the visual and emotional lens of the series. Lace, embroidery, sculptural tailoring, and dramatic volumes shape a proposal that blends historical references with a contemporary sensibility.
“Designing this capsule for The Vampire Lestat became an exploration of a shared universe, where the theatrical language of PALOMO meets Lestat’s magnetic, provocative spirit. There’s an instinctive dialogue between the brand’s romantic, expressive identity and his emotional complexity, each piece telling a story that blurs the boundary between fashion and character, elegance and rebellion.” says Alejandro Gómez Palomo, Founder and Creative Director of PALOMO.
“The opportunity to marry a series with such strong global appeal with an international designer who is driving fashion and culture today, really excited us,” said Kim Granito, Chief Marketing Officer for AMC Global Media. “PALOMO’s capsule collection is a celebration of style, identity, and the lush, provocative world of the series that feels as daring and unforgettable as Lestat himself.”
Said Maurizio Vitale, Head of Marketing, Streaming and Brand Strategy at AMC Global Media Iberia & Latin America: “THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO demonstrates the natural connection between Lestat’s emotional and theatrical universe and Palomo’s creativity. It is significant that this collaboration was born in Spain together with one of the most unique and influential designers in international fashion, demonstrating how Spanish talent can reinterpret a global franchise in a contemporary, sophisticated, and culturally relevant way.”
In the new rock and roll centric season, titled The Vampire Lestat, Lestat (Sam Reid) goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.
In addition to Reid, The Vampire Lestat stars Jacob Anderson,Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle and is executive produced by award-winning producer Mark Johnson, creator, writer and showrunner Rolin Jones, Hannah Moscovitch, along with Christopher Rice and the late Anne Rice.
