Reginald the Vampire, in a world of sexy fit Vampires, there is this guy
Reginald the Vampire stars Jacob Batalon. A lot of you mostly remember him as Ned. He is Peter Parker’s burly and nerdy best friend from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We now see a different side of him in this TV show. A show where he breaks the mold of a vampire. The media used to portray Vampires as horrifying and grotesque. Then came Anne Rice. Her novels depicted them as attractive hunters who used their seduction to catch their prey. Also there is Twilight, a franchise that gave us sparkling vampires.
As a result of the movie adaptations of her books, which starred gorgeous actors as vampires, the pale undead became more popular than ever. The majority of vampires adhered to the Eurocentric beauty ideals. Therefore, it is a welcome change to have an Asian Vampire play the primary role in a television drama about vampires.
Reginald the Vampire official trailer
Reginald (Jacob Batalon) is an ordinary dork who are mostly ignored by people. He always glare at his crush (Em Haine) and she never notice him at all. Fortunately, his fate will change Because a bunch of vampires decided to make him their next meal, instead of killing him, it converted him into a vampire.
Trying to predict how things will turn out is nearly impossible.The Universe conspired and give him a fate that is either a gift or a curse. As a result of this eternal youth, Reginald is now immortal and possesses powers most humans dream about in their fantasies.
Reginald is a Pacifist so killing a person to survive is something he cannot fathom. He will try to pay a man money to give him some blood. Will he give in to his instinct as a vampire?, or will he try to fight to keep his humanity despite his condition?

Years ago I read a novel titled “Fat Vampire” I believe that this show is an adaptation of that book. Hope this gives Batalon some success.

He is so underappreciated, but why? I can’t wait to see Reginald the Vampire because he has done such an amazing job with Ned.
Jacob Batalon is the main reason I’m excited to watch the episode. But once again, I’m baffled as to why Entertainment Weekly doesn’t feel the need to list the performers’ names in these brief panel discussions. It seems odd to start a conversation with the cast of a brand-new series with only their first names.
