Could John Cusack Be Vying For The Preacher Film?

We talked comic leger version withJohn Cusack , and whether he ’s quick for his own comedian - found film . One particular lamia and killer comic has sparked his interestingness , and we ’re wondering : Could it be Preacher ?

We talked to Cusack yesterday as part of 2012 interviews :

With mirthful Good Book films being so immense mighty now in Hollywood and big - name actors like Robert Downey Jr. star in films such as Iron Man , would you ever consider doing a comic book adjustment or a superhero film ?

I do n’t love , but yeah , for certain . I reckon the adult comics are some of the best film theme out there .

Are there any comics in particular out there that you ’d care to make ?

Not one that I particularly know that I would wish to do , but whenever I ’ve come across one , I ’ve really liked them .

Last Of Us 7 Ellie Crash

Are there any [ funny Scripture movie ] you ’ve seen floating around in Hollywood that you ’d like to see made ?

Yeah , I can , there was one or two that I heard of that sounded really cool . One of them was about , I think … it ’s a vampire and a slayer , and they ’re on the road , and it ’s this really unknown tale . I thought that sounded jolly coolheaded . Also some of the obscure I , I do n’t bonk if there are any more superheroes left .

That sounds a little bit like Preacher ?

Mission Impossible 8 Underwater

I think it might have been Preacher .

You should get involved with that !

I ’m trying to . I find out about that one , I like that .

Who would you want to play ?

I ’d say either the lamia or the non-Christian priest . One of those two hombre .

So just the two good characters in the comic ?

Mission Impossible 8 Tom Cruise Hang

Why not ?

So I ’m not 100 % sure if Preacher is the playscript that Cusack run into , but the name definitely struck a chord with Cusack . I ca n’t even imagine Cusack as an homicidal Cassidy , but he could make a pretty bad ass Jesse or even Arseface ’s pa . John August ’s screenplay may not even be finished yet , and it ’s possible Cusack was merely speak about it as an thought he ’d hear floating around Hollywood .

Last we hear about the adaptation of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon ’s comic serial , Sam Mendes was possibly going to direct and the book washalf land up in May . But at least Mendes said he was trying to render it just justly so there might be a second or a third .
