The first official casting for AMC’s TV series adaptation of the popular comic book Preacher from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg has been announced.

Ruth Negga, who plays Raina on ABC’s Marvel series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., has been cast as the female lead in Preacher, a character named Tulip. Tulip is the ex-girlfriend of the main character of the show, Jesse Custer, a preacher who merges with an entity that has escaped Heaven, giving him the ability to command those who can hear and understand him to do as he says.
