Sadly, the Preacher movie has been in talks for years and nothing's come of it. The first time it came up, James Marsden, who played Cyclops in the X-Men movies, was set to play Jesse Custer. It was going to be based on the "Gone to Texas" storyline.
Anyways, my fave lines:
Cassidy: "I've been wanderin' round the world for three-quarters of a fuckin' century, watchin' all me mates dyin' or gettin' old, an' now I finally find someone else who's gonna live forever an' well, it turns out he's a bit of a prick."
What makes Preacher great is that anyone can read it. It has something for everyone. The action scenes are amazing. The funny parts are hilarious. The romantic parts are sweet as hell. The suspenseful parts have you cutting tension with a knife. Save for a select few, Preacher can safely be recommended to anyone. I'd love to see a movie someday, as a set trilogy like the Lord of the Rings movies.
