Joe Carnahan Wants To Direct Preacher & Taskmaster


A-Team director Joe Carnahan (Smokin Aces) wants a shot at directing the long waited Preacher film. It's been in development for years and even high profile directors like Sam Mendes have been attached. Joe also mentions Marvel characters he's been interested in bringing to the screen. He mostly wants to make Taskmaster film which he has talked about before. Taskmaster is a villain who is able to mimic fighting moves and abilities just by seeing them.


It's interesting since he does mention the vigilante Moon Knight could end up taking him on. Joe had also been toying with the idea of Juggernaut film, who get's his powers from an ancient ring. I can't comment if Carnahan is the best choice for Preacher but he seems capable enough to make an adult oriented Moon Knight or Taskmaster film.
