If the rumor of Robert Rodriguez shooting the pilot episode of HBO's Preacher series wasn't enough, the good folks at CHUD report that both David Cronenberg and Brian De Palma are in the running to helm! Preacher is my all-time favorite comic book and any of these three legendary directors would leave me speechless. Click the link for the story. "Preacher," which ran from 1995-2000, 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.
