FINALLY, people! It’s official; Dominic Cooper is Jesse Custer in AMC’s adaptation of the Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon comic. The news was confirmed by Seth Rogen on Twitter just a little while ago…

Cooper’s casting rounds out Preacher’s main trio of Jesse Custer, Tulip O’Hare (Ruth Negga) and Cassidy (Joe Gilgun).

and the series is expected to debut on AMC in 2016. I’ve got to step up my reading!
