I don't know if you read the books, but the series is made up of 12 books and they are set in 4 different "trilogies" even though they just continue the same overall story line. So, the first three books are part of the "Vampire Blood" trilogy, books 4-6 are known as the "Vampire Rites" trilogy, and so on. If I am telling you a bunch of crap you already know, then I apologize for that.
The original "plan" was to make 4 movies, each movie being based on each trilogy. Unfortunately, this movie did not do so hot in the box office and as far as I know there are no plans for a sequel. I don't like to hear the typical comments about movies being different from their respective books, but in this case it really did hurt the movie's potential because they screwed with it so much and I think they screwed themselves out of more money by not sticking to the story line or the darkness of the books. Personally, I found the movie entertaining and I do think there is potential for a nice franchise based on the books because the story is fantastic and it would be a fresh take in the current vampire movie madness these days. I wish they would do a sequel, but I highly doubt it will happen.
This was probably a lot more than you wanted hahaha.
