Joe Carnahan wants Preacher

A-Team director Joe Carnahan has expressed an interest in making a movie adap of comic book Preacher .

While talking to Superhero Hype , the filmmaker revealed that he would be interested in reviving the long-gestating project.

“I'm kind of desperate to do another comic book adaptation,” he says. "The other thing I'm really keen on or interested in is Preacher because I'm a big Garth Ennis fan and I love that series and that's out there, and that might be something… I really love that.
