Adam Croasdell to Play PREACHER’s Eccarius

Ahead of its hotly anticipated third season, AMC’s Preacher has moved to bring in another new addition that some comic book fans will be more than familiar with.

As confirmed by AMC themselves, Reign’s Adam Croasdell has been brought in to play Eccarius, a 350-year-old vampire who made a couple of appearances in the Preacher comic book realm. For TV, the character’s description has him pegged as “regal, charming, and styles himself after the more romantic, Gothic image of vampires. He appears to be a cliché at first but a much darker character lurks beneath the surface.”

Other new additions already announced are Betty Buckley as Jesse’s Gran-ma, Jonny Coyne as Allfather D’Aronique, and Prema Cruz as Madame Boyd.

Expect more on Preacher’s third season as it continues to develop.
