AMC Orders Season One Of ‘Preacher’

Since I first heard that AMC had ordered the pilot for ‘Preacher‘, the adaption of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon’s fantastic comic book by the same name, I’ve wondered how AMC would get around some of the controversial content. The biggest concern is the comic’s not so pleasant references to God. I guess they are willing to deal with any drama from fans or groups because AMC has gone ahead and ordered the first season of ‘Preacher’, consisting of ten episodes. The series is set to premier in mid 2016. For those who are not familiar with the comics, let me explain. ‘Preacher’ follows Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper), a preacher from a small Texas town, who was pushed into preaching by his effing insane family. Jesse, after being possessed by Genesis, sets out to find God. He is accompanied by his ex girlfriend Tulip O’Hare (Ruth Negga) and Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun), a vampire. Genesis, an entity that is half angel

For five seasons Greg Nicotero has led his incredibly talented team of special effect makeup artists who always seem to bring the rotting walkers to life. The sixth season is quickly approaching (October 11) and Nicotero has made statements that because of the increasing amount of the walker’s decomposition the team will be using less detailed makeup and more CGI. Greg Nicotero with a friend Nicotero had this to say to THR on the subject “We’re doing a few things we haven’t done before, which is digital augmentation of walkers. We’re moving noses and putting a cavity there. Taking the area underneath the ribcage and shrinking it down. Kind of Bernie Wrightson style. That stuff is what makes it more exciting because it gives us more opportunities.” He continues “Scott Has one very specific thing he is conscious of, which is it can’t
