AMC has renewed 'Preacher' on a bittersweet note that the new season will also be the last one of the horror drama series. After season three's fiery finale, fans are looking forward to season four of the show which follows a criminal-turned-preacher in his adventures to find God. The show has everything from latex dalmatian suits to Adolf Hitler working in a sandwich shop and the new season is just around the corner. Seth Rogen, who developed and executive produces the series, announced the new season on Instagram. "The fourth and final season of 'Preacher' is coming. It’s been a wild ride. Thank you all," he wrote. Before season four goes on air, here is all you need to know about it:

Release Date

'Preacher' season four will premiere on AMC on August 4, 2019.

Cast

'Preacher' introduced viewers to Jesse, Tulip and Cassidy and fans followed the trio throughout the adventures in the last three seasons. The main three characters will be returning for season four, with Dominic Cooper leading as the eponymous Preacher Jesse Custer, who has seemingly lost his faith. Ruth Negga will return as Tulip O’Hare, Jesse's girlfriend, who ended up hearing the voice of God last year. Completing the iconic trio, Joseph Gilgun will be back as Irish vampire Cassidy who got himself into some sticky situations in the last run.

Other cast members like Noah Taylor as Adolf Hitler and Malcolm Barrett as Hoover. Pip Torrens, who portrays villain Herr Starr, is also going to be back for the new season.

The series is developed by Sam Catlin, Evan Goldberg, and Seth Rogen for AMC. 

Plot

'Preacher' follows Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper), a criminal-turned-preacher who forms a bond with a powerful entity called Genesis — the offspring of a demon and an angel — that lets him bend people to his commands. After learning that God has gone missing, Jesse sets off with his girlfriend Tulip (Ruth Negga) and a vampire called Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun), to find God and hold him to account.

Fans are excited to find out how the trio's journey will come to an end, although they will be terribly missed. The trio still has a lot of foes out there and the next season will be picking up from the previous year which saw Cassidy taken by Herr Starr to the Grail headquarters known as Masada.
