Take Your First Look At Arseface In AMC’s ‘Preacher’!

Briefly: Following the series’ first trailer back in November, AMC has just debuted the first image of Eugene or… Arseface in its anticipated adaptation, Preacher.

Based on the twisted and popular ‘90s comic book franchise of the same name, “Preacher,” created by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, is the story of Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper) a conflicted Preacher in a small Texas town who is inhabited by a mysterious entity that allows him to develop a highly unconventional power. Jesse, his ex-girlfriend, Tulip (Ruth Negga), and an Irish vampire named Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun) embark on a journey to, literally, find God. The Sony Pictures Television and AMC Studios co-production was developed for television by Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg (“This Is the End,” “Superbad,” “Neighbors”) and showrunner Sam Catlin (“Breaking Bad”). The series is set to premiere mid-2016.

You can take a look at the image below, and be sure to let us know what you think! This version of Areseface looks much cleaner than what I remember from the comic book series, though I’m sure that AMC simply had to tone things down in order to even have the character on television.

Preacher premieres on May 22nd! What do you hope to see in the full series?
