AMC’s Preacher has already screened for a lucky few, but viewers of tonight’s Fear The Walking Dead Season 2 premiere got an earful all their own in the first official clip. Meet Ruth Negga’s Tulip, as Preacher comes to life in a new sneak peek from the May premiere!

Despite prominently featuring Cassidy in the recent key art, our first official extended clip (in off-screen quality, for now) from AMC’s Preacher adaptation sees Ruth Negga’s Tulip in a spot of peril, attempting to kill someone in her car at high-speed, careening out of control into a cornfield. Suffice to say, Evander Holyfield’s ear might be twitching right now.

For those unfamiliar with the 1990s comic series from Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon, AMC’s official description of Preacher reads:

Preacher is about Jesse Custer, a conflicted Preacher in a small Texas town who merges with a creature that has escaped from heaven and develops the ability to make anyone do anything he says. Along with his ex-girlfriend, Tulip, and an Irish vampire named Cassidy, the three embark on a journey to literally find God.

The original Preacher had itself been optioned for various adaptations many times over the years, while AMC’s incarnation will deviate from the comic in certain respects. Sam Catlin (Breaking Bad) will serve as executive producer and showrunner for the new series, while fellow producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will direct the pilot episode, having written the script with Catlin.

Preacher will officially premiere on May 22, so stay tuned for the latest.
