Over at Collider they have an exclusive interview with producor Neal Moritz, and he releases som e information on The Preacher movie.
When asked the status he replied...
"We now have a terrific script that John August wrote. We were originally talking with Sam Mendes about doing the movie. Sam Mendes is going to go off and do the Bond movie, so there’s another director that we’re talking to right now.I hopefully will be shooting that movie next year."
One of the most important things im sure we are wondering is the tone of the movie....
"We’ve got a great script. John August wrote a script that I think is terrific. The hardest thing was with all the books-the Preacher books-was how to distill it down. And what he made the smart decision instead of trying to cram everything into one, there’s plenty of room for 2 or 3 movies. So that’s what he’s done and he’s done a really faithful adaption but made it probably more accessible to a broader audience right now. That movie’s definitely R-rated and it’s an amazing central character".
John August has shown more than a writing interest in the project aswell as Moritz says...
"I had a meeting with him recently and we started talking about directors and we were talking about some really, you know, lofty directors. And he said you know if you don’t get one of those I’d be interested in it. I said we’ll talk about it".
Well i have heard the rumours before but im feeling a little more hopeful after this interview.Lets just hope they treat it with respect :D
