AMC’s ‘Preacher’ Has Found Its Arseface!

Briefly: Following the reveal of Ruth Negga as Tulip just yesterday, the next cast member for AMC’s Preacher adaptation has been revealed.

Again, it’s not Jesse (meaning we’ll have to keep waiting to see if those Dominic Cooper rumours were true), but is one of the DC/Vertigo title’s most interesting characters: Eugene “Areseface” Root. “Even with his horribly disfigured face and severe speech impediment, Eugene’s still the nicest kid you’ll ever meet and really looks up to Jesse. Stomach-churningly difficult to look at, Eugene’s the town’s reviled Frankenstein’s monster, but that won’t change his earnest, sweet and pure outlook on life. However, he is troubled by something terrible he’s done in the past — something he fears might have turned God himself against him.”

The character will be played by youngin’ Ian Colletti.
