Fan Expo Canada, Canada's largest comics, sci-fi, horror, anime, and gaming event, will feature some of the hottest names across genres for a four-day, all-ages extravaganza. From Aug. 31 until Sept. 3, Fan Expo Canada is inviting all expo-nauts to nerd out with their comic book comrades and heroes of horror at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
Among this year's legendary group of attendees is the previously announced cast of "Rocky Horror Picture Show"; crossbow-wielding zombie slayer Norman Reedus; worrisome protocol droid Anthony Daniels; shark-hunter turned Hollywood icon Richard Dreyfuss; Queen of the Seven Kingdoms Lena Headey; Canadian treasure Victor Garber; and Kathleen Turner, whose sultry voice gave life to Toontown's infamous Jessica Rabbit. Also in attendance will be the cast of last summer's runaway hit "Stranger Things," including Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo and Caleb McLaughlin as well as the "Buffyverse's" James Marsters and Anthony Head, who will lay their stakes into the star-studded event.
"Our mission is always to create a dynamic guest lineup that speaks to the diverse community of Fan Expo Canada," said Andrew Moyes, vice president of Fan Expo HQ. "Whether you're a classic film fanatic, a Whovian, a Potterhead, a Thronie, or somewhere in between, this year's show will offer a celebration of fandom like no other."
