Seth Rogen has posted some promotional art for the upcoming AMC adaptation of Garth Ennis & Steve Dillon’s Preacher, which will premiere on the channel in 2016.
“Preacher is coming to AMC!” he Tweeted. “The beginning is nigh!!”
Rogen is one of the Executive Producers of the project, along with Sam Catlin and Evan Goldberg.
THR notes that the first season will contain ten episodes (nine plus the pilot).
Agent Carter’s Dominic Cooper plays Rev. Jesse Custer, a Texas preacher who loses his faith and then learns that God has left Heaven and forsaken his duties. He then becomes the only one who is able to track God down and hold him responsible for his abdication.
The Preacher cast also includes Ruth Negga (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) as Tulip, Lucy Griffiths (Constantine) as church organist Emily Woodrow, Joseph Gilgun (This Is England) as the vampire Cassidy, and Ian Coletti as Uhfuh… we mean, Arseface. You can see Rogen’s Tweet below:
