This is the second teaser to be released in April. The first provided a look at another fan favourite, the unfortunately-named Arseface. Check that out here.
Preacher stars Captain America‘s Dominic Cooper as a smalltown preacher who is possessed by a supernatural creature and controlled by opposing forces of both good and evil. The show has been developed by Seth Rogen and his regular filmmaking partner Evan Goldberg.
The comic book was created by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, and first published in 1995 by the DC imprint Vertigo to huge acclaim. It ran for a total of 75 issues, including several one-off specials and a limited series, and finished in 2000.
Last week it was announced that Rogen and Goldberg are also developing The Boys, another acclaimed comic book written by Ennis, for TV. The show focuses upon a CIA squad who are tasked with keeping troublesome superheroes in check. As reported by Deadline, The Boys is being developed for Cinemax.
