Fans can visit Twitter or Instagram to post their most creative photos, videos or comments about why their hometown deserves an exclusive "Preacher" screening using the hashtag #PreacherFanScreenings.

The cable network will select four cities or towns for screenings of the supernatural series' pilot episode on April 30, May 7, 15 and 21.

"We can't wait to give comic-book superfans, who have been eagerly awaiting an adaptation of this property, the opportunity to see 'Preacher' before its official premiere on AMC," Linda Schupack, executive vice president of marketing for AMC/SundanceTV, said in a statement Tuesday.

"These early screenings are a great way for us to provide a special experience for the legions of loyal and enthusiastic fans and, we hope, turn them into evangelizers, telling their friends to check out the show when it premieres."

Developed for television by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg , the darkly comic drama will co-star Dominic Cooper , Joseph Gilgun and Ruth Negga
