Sam Mendes Preaches about Preacher

Sam Mendes is taking time to talk about Preacher and in a recent interview with MTV let it be known that the film is coming along nicely and although the focus will be on doing a kick ass movie, they are laying the groundwork for potential sequels.

“You have to try and get one really good and then, if you’re lucky, you can make a second or a third,” said Mendes. “You can create something that’s going to run. But I think that there’s certainly more than enough for one good movie and plenty left over.”

For those of you unfamiliar to the comic, it was created by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon and ran from 1995-2000. Preacher told the story of a down-and-out Texas preacher possessed by Genesis, a supernatural entity conceived by the unnatural coupling of an angel and a demon.

Given immense powers, the preacher teamed with an old girlfriend and a hard-drinking Irish vampire and set out on a journey across America to find God -- who apparently had abandoned his duties in heaven -- and hold him accountable for his negligence.
