“Preacher” Comic-Con Trailer: Herr Starr Steals the Show

Published

on

The second season of “Preacher” opened with a bang, a bang, and a bang. The Saint of Killers (Graham McTavish) blasted off heads and limbs, while Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper), his badass ex-girlfriend Tulip (Ruth Negga), and the Irish vampire, Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun), embark on a road trip to find God.

Already several episodes in, storylines are about to cross, and we’re about to be introduced to one of the comic’s big bads: Herr Starr (Pip Torrens), head of “The Grail”. The special San Diego Comic-Con trailer gives us our first taste at Starr, who is basically a complete badass. He’s trying to recruit Jesse, meanwhile, Eugene (Arseface) and Hitler are attempting to escape Hell and the Saint of Killers stops for a drink before coming face-to-face with Tulip.

Bloody violence in the Star Wars Universe? It’s about time! The poster’s tagline reads, “In an age of light… a darkness rises.” Expect the show’s official trailer tomorrow, March 19.

The High Republic saw the Jedi Order at its prime, centuries prior to the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.
