Comics, movies, TV, video games, books, podcasts — if it's geeky, there's a good chance it'll make an appearance at a Comic-Con. From San Diego Comic-Con International and New York Comic Con to DragonCon and Emerald City Con, these are among the most attended annual pop culture gatherings in the world, and with all the chatter and change brewing in fan communities lately, each event is bound to be all the more exciting. The Verge is on the ground to get you the hottest new trailers, biggest news, best cosplay, and most crucial overall takeaways from the most important cons every year.
Warner Bros Discovery debuted the season 2 trailer for House of the Dragon at CCXP in Brazil today. The season’s eight episodes will start streaming on Max in summer 2024.
The Hollywood Reporter writes that House of the Dragon is bringing in some new actors, as well:
The production also announced additional actors joining the show: Clinton Liberty as Addam of Hull, Jamie Kenna as Ser Alfred Broome, Kieran Bew as Hugh, Tom Bennett as Ulf, Tom Taylor as Lord Cregan Stark and Vincent Regan as Ser Rickard Thorne.
Amazon’s Prime Video announced yesterday that the trailer is now on YouTube after showing it off at New York Comic Con.
It’s not long until the season’s November 3rd debut. But if you’re eager to get your fix (and haven’t seen it yet), check out the 47-minute Invincible Atom Eve episode that Prime Video put up in July.
AMC debuted a trailer for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon during the San Diego Comic-Con yesterday (via Deadline).
In it, we see Dixon find out he’s to transport a young child across the dead-ridden wastes of France to save the world, which sounds awfully familiar. But whatever, I’m always down for more Norman Reedus.
