Its future was uncertain after its 13-episode second season wrapped up in September, but it's now been confirmed that Jesse Custer and his cohorts will indeed return to raise hell in a third season of Preacher on AMC.
Executive producer Seth Rogen shared the news of Preacher's renewal on Twitter, posting an image of Cassidy, Tulip, and Jesse with the caption "Preacher Returns 2018." It's not yet known how many episodes the third season will contain or when the first one will premiere, but we'll be sure to keep Daily Dead readers updated as more details are divulged. Are you excited to see new episodes of the adaptation of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's cult comic book series?
"Based on the popular cult comic book franchise, Preacher tells the absurdly twisted tale of Jesse Custer, a small-town preacher inhabited by an angel-demon spawn that gives him the power to make people do his bidding, Tulip, his volatile true love, and Cassidy, a 119-year-old Irish vampire. After Jesse accidentally discovers that God is absent from Heaven, the three of them set out on a road trip to find Him, all while being hunted by the Saint of Killers, an unstoppable, mythical killer from Hell. The gang’s pursuit leads them to New Orleans, where they must dodge local gangsters, dangerous agents, and other unimaginable mayhem on their way to uncovering an even bigger secret."
