Per Deadline, six new actors have joined the cast of Preacher Season 2, including Taylor, Star Wars: The Force Awakens star Pip Torrens, and Fargo alum Julie Ann Emery as series regulars.
The cast of AMC’s Preacher ended up … well, depleted by the time Season 1 reached its climactic end, so it stands to reason Season 2 would need to fill up the reservoir.
Eugene “Arseface” Root was theoretically spared, while Season 2 will also continue on with Graham McTavish’s “Saint of Killers,” and the as-yet-uncast Herr Starr. We’ll surely see more from the thirteen-episode Preacher Season 2 in the coming days, but who might the new cast represent?
So it is that Game of Thrones alum Noah Taylor joins the cast among three new regulars and more recurring, one of which could represent our new big bad for the season.
