Movement on Preacher

After some anticipation, and then disappointment, last year when it was announced HBO might be developing the comic book series Preacher (my favorite comic series), there is once again movement in the development of this classic.

Earlier in the month director Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Revolutionary Road) stated that he was just waiting on a script before things could start rolling. According to Variety, that script is coming.

I don't want to get my hopes up too high - we've been at this point before - and how can you successfully adapt such a long series into a 2-3 hour film? For now, I'll just wait patiently.
