Amazon Prime nabs 'Preacher' for U.K. Streaming
Amazon Prime has acquired streaming rights to AMC's upcoming dark comedy-drama series Preacher for the U.K., Austria, Germany, and Japan.
Members of the service will have access to the program from May 23, with subsequent episodes launching Mondays from June 6, a day after the episode in question airs on AMC in the U.S.
“‘Preacher’ is one of the most ambitious and highly-anticipated new series of the year and exactly the kind of show we want to bring to our Prime members around the world,” said Brad Beale, vice president of worldwide television acquisition for Amazon.
“Sitting alongside shows like ‘The Man in the High Castle,’ ‘Transparent,’ ‘Mr Robot,’ ‘Fear the Walking Dead’ and the upcoming Clarkson, Hammond and May show, ‘The Grand Tour,’ ‘Preacher’ is another great addition to our line-up and we think our customers are going to love it.”
